Mayor’s Civic Dinner in Aid of The Sea Cadets


On Wednesday 15 April 2026, Mayor David Osborne invites you to join him for an evening at Essence at The Pantiles in aid of The Sea Cadets.

Guests will enjoy a welcome glass of Chapel Down fizz on arrival, a special menu chosen by The Mayor, along with an optional wine paring and charity auction. (Essence will be donating two books and a meal for two with a bottle of wine).

Sea Cadets is a national youth charity in the UK that offers adventure and personal development opportunities for young people aged 10 to 18. The organization provides various activities, including sailing, power-boating and life-saving skills, helping cadets build confidence and life skills. Trained volunteers, some with naval backgrounds serve as role models, guiding cadets and fostering a supportive environment.

As well as fund-raising for the Sea Cadets, David has also reintroduced the tradition of having a sea cadet supporting him at civic events during his term of office.
