Worshipful Company Dinner

Worshipful Company Dinner

Croydon cadets attended the Worshipful Company of Framework Knitters annual gala dinner, along with Commanding Officer Jackie Turner and Management Committee Chair Chris Hartwell. Cadets support our affiliated livery company on the evening, forming a guard of honour for guests at the event. This helps cadets with self discipline and provides an opportunity to engage with and meet influential people, helping their self confidence and raising awareness of Sea Cadets. It was a very enjoyable evening.
