The Unit meets at Arundel Court Junior School in Portsmouth with “Deck Training Nights” taking place on Wednesday Evenings from 1900 – 2100.

For those cadets that pass the New Entry Phase and have an interest in music we also have a band that meets on Monday evenings 1900 at the school.  The band regularly participates in parades, ceremonies, summer events and competition, while being one of our best fundraisers.  Just this month the band won the Hampshire Regional Band Competition and is looking forward to the National Band Competition later this year in October.

Wdo not receive government funding and are totally dependent on the money we raise ourselves through tom bolas, fetes, carnivals, band events and anything else the Ship’s Management Committee can think of.  If you came across this site while having a “Google”, “FROOGLE” or “I feel Lucky” then think what your organisation can do to help children who live in some of the most challenging areas of Portsmouth.

As well as conducting training in a range of nautical subjects, drill, marching and ceremonial there are opportunities to go sailing, boating, cycling and attend our annual camp which has been held at locations ranging from Pinsent and Arundel to the Norfolk Broads.

To find out more about the Unit please contact the Secretary Mrs Joanne Lawrence on 02392 691683 or e-mail us on explorer@ntc.org.uk.
