National 3 Peaks Challenge

Aim

Our Sea Cadet unit’s minibus was condemned! We need your help to fund a new one so cadets can keep accessing life-changing activities.

🚐 We’ve bought a new minibus for our Sea Cadets, and we need your help to recover the cost! 🚐

We are taking on the National 3 Peaks Challenge in July 2025, climbing Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike, and Snowdon to raise vital funds for our unit. This challenge is all about pushing our limits, but it’s also a way to help us recuperate the money the unit has spent on purchasing a new minibus to keep our cadets active, mobile, and ready for new adventures!

Why Are We Fundraising?

In order to continue providing fantastic opportunities for our cadets, the unit needed to purchase a replacement minibus. This new vehicle is essential for getting the cadets to training sessions, events, and expeditions, and we’ve already made the investment. Now, we’re working hard to raise the funds to cover the cost of the new minibus – and we need your support!

How You Can Help:

• 💸 Donate: Any donation, big or small, will go directly toward covering the cost of our new minibus.
• 🔄 Share: Spread the word to your friends, family, and networks! The more people know about this challenge, the closer we get to our goal.
• 🌟 Support Us on the Day: Join us in cheering on the team as we take on the 3 Peaks Challenge. Your words of encouragement will mean the world to us.

What’s at Stake?

By helping us raise these funds, you’ll enable the Sandwell Sea Cadets to:

• Continue to Travel and Compete: The minibus is crucial for transporting our cadets to various activities, events, and competitions, and your donations will ensure we can use it for years to come.
• Support Our Growth: The Sea Cadets offer young people valuable experiences in leadership, teamwork, and life skills. The minibus will help us bring those experiences to more cadets.
• Ensure Continued Success: This vehicle is key to getting cadets to events safely, efficiently, and with more opportunities for outdoor activities and community engagement.
