Thank you to everyone who helped at Copthorne Carnival on Saturday. The weather was on our side and everyone was smiling all day long.

We were able to raise about £6000 which is absolutely amazing! 🥳 This was all made possible from the band marching in the parade and all the volunteers who ran the stalls and the BBQ throughout the day.

Moments before disaster 😅 Swiftsure is out at Tilgate Park for a refresher on orienteering and a walk around the lake!

Well done to the Band for parading at Walton-On-The-Hill after setting up the Jumble Sale!

Thanks to our volunteers, we can raise funds so the cadets can go on fun trips, participate in thrilling activities and enjoy time with their friends 😁

The first Swiftsure camp of the year was a cold one but lots of fun was had. Cadets learnt many new skills and everyone should be proud of what they achieved on the trip!

We hope everyone enjoyed the trip and all the great activities. Hopefully the next trip will bring nicer weather 🌞
