Whether at sea or on land, the Sea Cadets offer 10 to 18-year-olds the opportunity to get involved in nautical themed activities.

Now, the charity is calling on more serving and former Royal Navy & Royal Marines to volunteer as leaders.

Chief Petty Officer Chris Gunton volunteers as CO for the Greenwich Sea Cadet Unit.

Tim Humphries spoke to Chris and asked him about his long association with the youth corps.

You can watch a video on volunteering and also see how the groups are celebrating the Corps 160th birthday this year here > www.sea-cadets.org
