OVERALL CADET OF THE YEAR 2024

OVERALL CADET OF THE YEAR 2024

We finish the year with our “Overall Cadet of the Year” who is decided by the unit volunteers and receives a sponsored voyage in 2025!

The TS Mohawk Overall Cadet of the Year is Cdt 1st Class Thomas👏

Thomas is an all rounded cadet. He has a real can-do attitude, gets involved with his CTP modules and has a readiness to learn new things. This is supported by his regular attendance, punctuality and eagerness to go away on courses to help his progression.

60th ANNIVERSARY HELD AT BLACKBURN CATHEDRAL

A heartfelt thank you to all our supporters, ex-cadets, and ex-volunteers for joining us on Sea Sunday, 14th July, to celebrate the 60th Anniversary of TS Mohawk.

It was truly wonderful to see so many familiar faces and to witness the joyous reunions as people caught up after long periods apart. Hearing about the careers you have all stepped into after leaving the unit - and how the unit helped you to get there!

Your presence and continued support mean the world to us. Here's to many more years of the unit! 🌊⚓

Until we meet again. Fair winds and following seas.
