Who are Chiswick Sea Cadets?
TS Stork was founded in 1997 when local residents realised that the newly built Chiswick Pier and Pier House would make an ideal base for a maritime focused, youth organisation. TS Stork was formed as a sub-unit of Wandsworth Sea Cadet Unit but quickly came into its own as an independent unit.
TS Stork was named after the naval training ship named Stork, which was moored above Hammersmith Bridge by Linden House (the current location of the London Corinthian Sailing Club) about a mile downstream of the Unit's current location.
