The My LegaSea project captured the views of more than 3,000 individuals aged from 18 to 92 who had been a member of the Sea Cadets. It gathered information on the impact of Sea Cadets during the person’s affiliation period and into their adult lives through a survey and face-to-face interviews and focus groups.
The project comes at a time when much of the focus for measuring the impact of youth work is on short-term outcomes defined by funders and commissioners, and less on the long-term benefits of participation.
My LegaSea is the first UK-wide, multigenerational study into the long-term impact of Sea Cadets’ work with young people, charting changes in how young people from different generations perceived the benefits of engaging with the charity.
