LT (SCC) JANICE
SPICER MBE,
RNR
It is with pleasure that we can record our delight that Lt Janice Spicer has been recognised in the New Year’s Honours List with the award of the MBE for services to the Sea Cadet Corps.
As a flavour of the dedication and service she has given to the SCC over a considerable amount of time an extract is included below of her recognition by the SCC recently.
“Since joining the Girls’ Nautical Training Corps in 1968 you have been a stalwart volunteer. From assuming a number of training roles to commanding the Hull Unit, your tireless commitment has been outstanding. Over many decades you have undertaken all manner of tasks to support the Cadets, striving to support all the young people with whom you have worked, many of them from disadvan- taged backgrounds.
Your efforts in encouraging youngsters
to develop and reach their full potential has undoubtedly benefitted not only the Naval Service but also the country. Your selfless commitment also stretches outside of the Unit into the City and local community. You have been a prolific fundraiser for many worthwhile causes whilst also encouraging the partici- pation of Sea Cadets and raising the organi- sation’s profile. The drive and dedication you have shown in your involvement with the Sea Cadet Corps is beyond question; that you have been instrumental in delivering life changing experiences to youngsters who society might otherwise have left behind is testament to your selfless commitment. Your tireless drive and enthusiasm epitomise the valuable efforts
of the voluntary sector and are in the finest traditions of the Sea Cadet Corps.”

We supplied morning and afternoon shifts because so many cadets volunteered. The grand sum was £1,008, an excellent result.
