INFORMATION ABOUT TS BULLDOG
The unit, which was named after HMS Bulldog, was opened in May 2009, and was the very first unit of the Navy Training Corps.
It is based at the Kingsway Community Centre in Quedgeley, Gloucester. It is the only unit that parades twice a week, and this is only possible due to the dedication of the staff and the support of the committee. The unit receives support and recognition from Quedgeley Parish Council, and this is due to the hard work that the staff and cadets have made within the community. Local events are fully supported by the unit.
The chairman, Tony Smith, has worked hard at raising the funds that are needed to ensure a successful unit, and he has been supported by staff and cadets attending these events. As well as providing the necessary funds for normal training the unit paid for cadets to visit Dunkirk and Ypres in September 2010.

Last Thursday every month Fun night
Cadets have taken part in expedition training on the Cotswold Hills and walking part of the Cotswold Way
