Malvern Unit (Unit 582) of the Sea Cadet Corps Structure, Governance and Management
Units of the SCC are formed solely by volunteers in local communities. Each Unit is a selfsupporting youth organisation and an independent charity with a central support management and training structure provided primarily by the Marine Society and Sea Cadets (MSSC). The unit becomes a part of the SCC by virtue of its’ affiliation to the MSSC, the parent body of the SCC. In accepting this affiliation, the unit undertakes to comply with all regulations issued by, or on behalf of, the MSSC Council.
The Unit was registered as an unincorporated charity on 10[th] July 1981 and is governed by a constitution approved by the Charity Commission of England and Wales. A revised constitution issued by the Marine Society and Sea Cadets was ratified by the Board of Trustees between meetings in December 2017 in order to meet the deadline of 31[st] December 2017.
Recruitment and Appointment of the Trustees
Trustees serve and are re-elected on an annual basis. A minimum of 4 office holders: Chair, Secretary, Treasurer and Commanding Officer. Unit Management Team (UMT) office holders are elected at the first meeting following the Annual General Meeting (AGM). UMT members are elected from the membership of the Sea Cadets Unit which is drawn loosely as being those with an interest in the unit. The constitution lays down specific controls for UMT membership and will be observed for all future recruitment.
In the event of a vacancy arising during the year (known as a casual vacancy), the trustees have the power to appoint new trustees. A trustee will serve until the date of the next AGM, after which the post will be filled by election.
The trustees are represented by a wide range of individuals from various aspects of the community. Trustees have the power to appoint additional trustees to act jointly with them for all purposes. A trustee whose term of office has expired can be appointed for a further term of office.
Responsibilities of the Trustees
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charity (Accounts Reports) Regulations 2008.They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Chairs Report and Headlines
Apr ’24 – Mar ’25:
The last financial year ended 31[st] March 2025 saw strong progress continue across our updated strategic and tactical objectives as well as our day-to-day operating priorities.
Key performance achievements during the financial year include:
-
the Unit being awarded a prestigious Gold burgee flag along with a Captains Commendation following the annual RNP (Royal Navy Parade) review
-
achieving a strong performance for the annual UMA (Unit Management Assurance) review
-
winning the Area ‘Chair of the Year’ award and 2 other staff commendations at Southwest Area Conference
-
Congratulations are also due to many cadets as well as our volunteer staff who have achieved qualification successes and rank promotions during the period – this includes our Commanding Officer, who was promoted from Sub Lieutenant to Lieutenant during the period. Well done to all.
Other key achievements during the period include:
-
Launch of a new “Archers” Section for 9-year-old junior cadets
-
Steady growth of overall cadet numbers
-
Strong community engagement across multiple events throughout the year
-
Continued solid financial position, enabling the Unit to maintain subsidised cadet subscriptions/cues at the level set in 2021, and subsidise other cadet activities
-
Increased success in obtaining grant funding towards specific strategic goals, enabling replacement of kayaks/canoes/general kit, purchase of an outboard motor to support our cadet boating activities and start building up funds to purchase a new minibus to replace our existing ageing vehicle (which has significant driver licence constraints and increasing maintenance overheads)
-
Upgrade to superfast broadband as a pre-cursor to implementing a wider technology improvement strategy plus deployment of large display screens to classrooms
-
Other expenditure included a new dishwasher for the Unit galley, a new washing machine, a branded gazebo for use at public and other events, branded feather flags
-
A focus was maintained on addressing general maintenance issues, in particular any affecting areas of health, safety and compliance
Looking ahead, our strategic priorities remain growth of cadet and staff numbers, replacement of our minibus and beyond this, technology enhancements, and improvements to the façade and entrance lobby area of the Unit.
Challenges
Despite significant effort including excellent direct support from the MSSC Area Growth & Development Team during the financial year under review, we continue to face challenges around volunteer recruitment and/or retention of Trustees, instructional staff and Unit assistants. We will continue our efforts to resolve.
Finally, I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who supports us in whatever capacity and especially all our dedicated staff volunteers for their loyalty and commitment to the Unit
Our returning officer confirmed the challenges we are facing as a unit, are being faced by all units across the board.

Commanding Officer’s Report
Apr ’24 – Mar ’25
Opening Statement
Following a year of consolidation and structural growth within the unit, the focus for the 2024/25 financial year was stability, development, and re-engagement — both within the ship’s company and the wider community. Having returned from maternity leave in July 2024, I resumed my role as Commanding Officer, supported by Lt (SCC) Alex Malm RNR, who provided continuity and strong leadership throughout my absence.
This year has been defined by progress and resilience. Despite the ongoing challenges of volunteer recruitment and staff turnover, the ship’s company has delivered an excellent standard of training, demonstrated by an average of 38.28 boating hours per cadet — well above the national target of 30 — and a Burgee score of 85, continuing our upward trend from 79 in 2023/24 and 65 in 2022/23. This achievement, alongside the award of an Area Officer’s Commendation for our work with 9-year-old juniors, reflects the commitment, enthusiasm, and professionalism of both our cadets and volunteers.

As a result of these numbers, the unit is operating at roughly 84% capacity. We continue to advertise and aim to improve our levels of active recruitment, benefitting from the support of the Growth and Development Team as well as the successful launch of our new 9-year-old Junior Section, Archer Division. Our aim remains to reach 30 cadets on strength — a target we have achieved intermittently but are working to be better positioned to sustain.

Treasurers Report
Apr ’24 – Mar ’25
Headlines:
This has been a successful year for the unit, with new kayaks purchased for the boating station at Upton-on-Severn and good progress made towards raising funds for a new minibus. This is reflected in the significant increase in the unit’s cash reserves, with net income of over £25,000 (compared with net expenditure of £3,665 in the last Financial Year), although it should be noted that £26,681 is held in a separate savings account as Restricted funds for the purchase of a new minibus.
This was a good year for donations and grants, the key achievements being:
-
£15,000 in two donations from the Spectris Foundation and the 29th May 1961 Charitable Trust; these are being held as Restricted Funds for the purchase of a new minibus.
-
£1667 in two donations from John Lewis PLC and the Upton Blues Festival for the purchase of seven new kayaks (completed in August 2024).
-
£1000 grant from MSSC for the establishment of the new Archer Division for nine-year-old Junior Cadets.
-
£1500 donation from the Hawthorne Trust.
Cues (subscription) income was broadly similar to the previous year, with most payments being made on time, although a small number of bad debts were incurred and had to be written off when cadets left the unit. A system for reclaiming Gift Aid from HMRC has been established, with the first claim being made in December 2024. Take up by parents/guardians has been patchy and more effort will be put into this area in the coming months.
Fundraising is now being led by the UMT, under the leadership of the Unit Chair. Although fundraising opportunities at the Upton Blues Festival and the Three Counties Show have been lost, the remaining major efforts at the Three Counties Showground – the RHS Spring Show and the Autumn Show – continue to raise significant amounts for the unit. Of particular note is the £6,440 received from the Lloyds Bank Foundation as matched giving donations following volunteering at these events by Lloyds Bank employees. When added to the £3,000 received from the Three Counties Showground for providing the porter service and the £3,897 raised from public donations, it is clear that these events play a key role in the financial viability of the unit.
The amount spent on repairs and maintenance was considerably lower than in the previous year, which was dominated by the Main Deck refurbishment programme, but significant sums were spent on an ongoing programme of improvements to the unit, especially relating to fire safety. The need to have the ageing minibus checked every six weeks has been a financial burden, but this should be reduced once a new vehicle has been purchased.
Page. 10
Total bank balances rose from £51,101 on 31[st] March 2024 to £68,579 on 31[st] March 2025. A Reserves Policy has now been agreed that will ensure that the unit will be able to weather any likely financial shocks and to continue to provide a great Sea Cadet experience to our young people.
The aim for the forthcoming year will be to complete the purchase of a new minibus and then to turn our attention to a facelift for the front of the unit so that its current tired appearance can be updated to better reflect the modern Sea Cadet Corps.
