218 ACU TO WALK AGAINST CANCER

From 10 to 11 October 2026, 218 ACU cadets and staff will be participating in the 24 Hour Walk Against Cancer at Campbelltown Stadium.

The purpose of this walk is to raise much needed money for the Macarthur Cancer Therapy Centre, the Oncology Ward and the Paediatric Ambulatory Care Unit at Campbelltown Hospital and the Palliative Care Unit and associated Outreach service at Camden Hospital.

As the slogan goes, ‘By Macarthur, For Macarthur, In Macarthur’.

We would encourage you to donate to this cause via the Unit’s fundraising page. Every dollar helps the cause and encourages our team to get through the finish line when the 24 hours are up!!

Thanks for visiting my Fundraising Page for the 24hr Fight Against Cancer Macarthur 2026. All proceeds help local people of all ages dealing with cancer. You can sponsor me and leave a message by sele

Not only was 218 ACU represented by cadets, the Training Officer, Lieutenant (AAC) J.L.S. Travers, ran the Public Affairs 1 Elective course as part of his secondary role in the NSW AAC BDE Public Affairs Team.

218 ACU PROUDLY DISPLAYS NEW UNIT SHOULDER PATCH

After receiving the necessary approval, 218 ACU proudly wore its unit shoulder patch publicly for the first time when members attended the Handmade and Homegrown Markets.

When the unit was established, it was known as the 218 Regional Cadet Unit Macarthur and the unit has consistently used a ram in its insignia. The unit has kept this tradition and this link with the Macarthur region alive.

218 ACU will now wear this patch when undertaking unit activities and it is proud to do so.
