Comment on this story on the

Wandsworth, Chelsea and Fulham Sea Cadets (the unit based on Putney Embankment) are one of the few groups in the area who offer activities for children aged between 10 and 18 in the area.

The charity aims to aid the development of young people, by helping them achieve their physical, intellectual and social potential as individuals and as responsible citizens. This is done through the provision of education, practical tasks, and waterborne activities using a nautical theme in accordance with the principles, ethos and practices of the Marine Society and Sea Cadets.

Sea Cadets Putney wants more young people in the community to grab a better future and flourish by building confidence, learning skills and gaining valuable qualifications with the support of dedicated volunteers.

If you would like to learn more about the group there is information, including details on how to sign up, on its website.

Like Reading Articles Like This? Help Us Produce More

This site remains committed to providing local community news and public interest journalism.

Articles such as the one above are integral to what we do. We aim to feature as much as possible on local societies, charities based in the area, fundraising efforts by residents, community-based initiatives and even helping people find missing pets.

We've always done that and won't be changing, in fact we'd like to do more.

However, the readership that these stories generates is often below that needed to cover the cost of producing them. Our financial resources are limited and the local media environment is intensely competitive so there is a constraint on what we can do.

We are therefore asking our readers to consider offering financial support to these efforts. Any money given will help support community and public interest news and the expansion of our coverage in this area.

A suggested monthly payment is £8 but we would be grateful for any amount for instance if you think this site offers the equivalent value of a subscription to a daily printed newspaper you may wish to consider £20 per month. If neither of these amounts is suitable for you then contact info@neighbournet.com and we can set up an alternative. All payments are made through a secure web site.

One-off donations are also appreciated. Choose The Amount You Wish To Contribute.

If you do support us in this way we'd be interested to hear what kind of articles you would like to see more of on the site – send your suggestions to the editor.

For businesses we offer the chance to be a corporate sponsor of community content on the site. For £30 plus VAT per month you will be the designated sponsor of at least one article a month with your logo appearing if supplied. If there is a specific community group or initiative you'd like to support we can make sure your sponsorship is featured on related content for a one off payment of £50 plus VAT. All payments are made through a secure web site.
