WSea cadets are members of a sea cadet corps, a formal uniformed youth organisation for young people with an interest in water borne activities and or the national navy. The organisation may be sponsored in whole or in part by the navy or a naval supporter's organisation. In the United Kingdom, sea cadets are governed by the parent charity MSSC and receives just over half of its funding from the Ministry of Defence.
