🌺 The Remembrance period begins.

As we enter this period of reflection, we remember all those who have served, those who made the ultimate sacrifice and all those whose lives have been changed by conflict.

For the Royal Air Force Air Cadets, Remembrance is an opportunity to honour their service and sacrifice, to learn from their stories, and to ensure their legacy lives on in future generations.

Across the country, our cadets and volunteers will join their communities in paying tribute to the fallen. By standing alongside veterans, serving personnel and members of the public, they help keep the act of Remembrance alive.

We will remember them.

"A warm welcome to our newest recruits! ✈️

We recently hosted our Autumn Intake Day, opening our doors to new cadets and their parents. After a tour of the Squadron, our recruits got stuck right in—tackling drill, taking on teamwork challenges, and learning all about the rich history of the Royal Air Force Air Cadets.

Welcome to the team, everyone! We're excited to see what you achieve. 🙌 Blue skies ahead! 🌟"

CADETS SAVE LIVES 🚑

Day four of is all about the life-saving impact of our incredible young people and volunteers.

First aid is a core skill taught across the , giving thousands the knowledge and confidence to step up when it matters most—both in uniform and out in the wider community.

This summer alone, our incredible team has made headlines:

A cadet saved the life of a student during a school trip.
A cadet and a staff member stepped in to save someone at a local community event.

And that's just the major interventions, not to mention the day-to-day minor injuries handled with absolute composure in everyday life.

First aid isn't just an activity badge; it's an essential life skill that truly saves lives. 💙
