On Friday 5th April Fishguard Sea Cadets held its annual presentation night, which this year was attended by the High Sheriff of Dyfed Mr Stephen Mansel-Davies. Prior to him presenting the Certificates, Badges and Trophies there was an address by the CO on the previous years activities etc. The High Sheriff enjoyed his evening with us and at the end of the evening he addressed the ships company and spoke about how impressed he was with the building, facilities and above all the enthusiasm shown by the cadets and volunteers. He also agreed to sponsor 2 x Offshore Berths for 2019. We are extremely grateful for his support.

Last weekend 15-17th March our 9 Cadets attended the South West Area Drill Competition at HMS Raleigh. After weeks and weeks of Training and preparing uniform and countless extra nights spent getting ready for this compeition we came 5th. This is a fantastic result given our progress in the Area event over past few years. The Commanding Officer said "I am really proud of these guys, they have put so much effort in of late, and this is an extremely tough competition, we are making huge progress year on year and I couldn't have asked for anymore. This year has seen the best commitment to training and uniform preperation that I have ever seen and we are all really proud of them"

Over the weekend of 8th-10th March 2019, 10 volunteers and 2 Cadets took part in a First Aid at Work course, delivered by Nuco Training and Mr Jordan Throop. The Training took place all weekend, including lots of practical. These awards allow for some of these staff to now be able to deliver First Aid Training to the cadets, but also make sure that we have sufficient staff qualified in First Aid should the need ever arrise. This is the most First Aid at Work qualified staff we have ever had, and this clearly moves the unit forward both in terms of First Aid delivery and our quest to enter more First Aid competitions.
