SEA Cadets welcomed comrades from around the Severn District to Stroud for the organisation's annual Trafalgar Day parade and service.

Stroud Sea Cadets were proud to host the march through town, followed by worship at St Laurence Parish Church led by their padre the Rev Peggy Ludlow, commanding officer Petty Officer Paul White said.

"With 11 units in our district it was 11 years since we'd held it here and it was special as it is also our 70th anniversary this year," Mr White said.

"There were about 300 in all. Cadets came to us from Tewkesbury, Gloucester, Cheltenham and beyond."

The salute, outside Stroud Subscription Rooms, was taken by Lord Lieutenant of Gloucestershire Dame Janet Trotter with Stroud MP Neil Carmichael in attendance.
