TS Euryalus - Oxford Sea Cadet Unit Donnington Bridge Road, OXFORD OX4 4BJ Charity number 293839
Trustees' Report 1st April 2023 to 31st March 2024
During the year covered by this report the Unit Management Team ('the UMT') consisted of the following active trustees: the Rev’d Stephen Pix (Chair), Lt (SCC) Anthony Ingham (Acting Commanding Officer), Mr Leo Lester (Secretary), Mr Tim Taylor (Treasurer), Sub Lt (SCC) Mark Ingham and the Rev'd Anthony Buckley (Unit Chaplain). The UMT met four times: 28th July and 29th September 2023, and 9th January and 1st March 2024.
The trustees did not meet for several months in the early part of the year which is the subject of this report because the Chairman, Mr Clive Berry, was unwell and was unable to fulfil his duties. A meeting was called on 28th July 2023 at which Mr Berry was released and the Rev’d Stephen Pix took over as Chairman. At that same meeting Mr Leo Lester and Mr Daniel Coles were co-opted as trustees; Mr Lester was elected to be Secretary and Mr Taylor was elected to be Treasurer..
The conduct of the Unit was governed by the Regulations of the Sea Cadet Corps, and the UMT managed the finances and the organisation of the Unit in accordance with those regulations, for the benefit of the boys and girls who were members of the Unit as cadets and of the area of Oxford in which the Unit Headquarters is situated.
Attendance figures for Cadets and Juniors were very healthy. Staff and Cadets met virtually every Tuesday and Friday for training; the activities included drill with and without weapons, seamanship and boat handling, and leadership skills. They also participated in sporting and seamanship activities at District and Area level with considerable success, and most cadets attended training courses and offshore events organised by the Sea Cadet Corps.
The Unit was supported partially by cadet subscriptions, but principally by the sale of Christmas trees from the Unit Headquarters in November and December 2023. Any surplus after running costs had been met was put aside in a special account for when funds would be required to rebuild the Unit Headquarters.
The trustees were aware of the need for the Unit to provide a public benefit, and took steps to do this. Membership was open to all boys and girls who wished to join, without any discrimination, subject to the overall discretion of the Acting Commanding Officer. Moreover, the Unit Headquarters building was available for use by local groups at reasonable cost, again without discrimination as long as the activities of the groups were not at variance with the aims and values of the Sea Cadet Corps.
