SEA Cadets across East Lancashire are saluting the generosity of Daniel Thwaites Brewery.

For Thwaites' Charitable Trust has enabled Blackburn Sea Cadets to further improve their technical learning skills, following the purchase of two reconditioned marine engines.

Lieutenant Gavin Redhead, Commanding Officer of Blackburn Sea Cadets, who meet at the Parade Hall on Phillips Road, said: "Working on the engines helps our Cadets understand the intricacies of machines and their functionality. We are indebted to Thwaites for this support."
