We quickly realised that we would need financial support above what we could raise through our normal channels, as much of the equipment required would not be provided by the Sea Cadet stores directly.
The Castleford Freemasons had previously supported TS Unicorn by paying for the band at

with our set up costs. Bill helped with the wording of the application and also used his experience from the army to develop a list of training equipment and associated costings.

All at Castleford Sea Cadets would like to thank the Freemasons for their continued support and for all they do to help good causes in the local community.
