What do the RMC do?

The Royal Marine Cadets are part of the Sea Cadet family. Royal Marines Cadets enjoy all the exciting activities that Sea Cadets do, as well as branching off into serious adventure training too. Specialising in orienteering, field craft and weapons handling is what makes Royal Marines Cadets unique and you can join from the age of 13 to 18 (Sea cadets are 12-18) .Cadets have opportunity’s to make amazing memories, friendships and learn incredible new skills that will last their entire lives, and show them discipline, integrity and respect. There are plenty of overnight courses that range from two days to a week. The highlight of the Marine Cadets year is summer camp, a week long experience with a variety of courses to partake in.
