🇬🇧 Lincolnshire County Poppy Launch

A fantastic event hosted by the Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Centre. Bringing together veterans, cadets, families and communities to celebrate the launch of the Poppy Appeal.

The event included a Royal British Legion service, a gathering of standards and cadets, and a spectacular finale as 50,000 biodegradable paper poppies were released from beneath the wings of the iconic Just Jane Avro Lancaster bomber.

An especially proud moment for 3 Company, whose cadets proudly represented us as standard bearers throughout the event.

The photographs capture a cadet from each of our six detachments: Holbeach, Kirton, Spalding, Boston, Skegness and Long Sutton.

Well done to all our cadets. You represented 3 Company with pride and distinction. We couldn’t be prouder! 👏🇬🇧

The 2 stars passed their first aid yesterday so today they put their newly earned skills to good use to deal with 2 scenarios which involved some good acting from the carde DS staff.

10 Troop Sleaford members took part in season gardening, general maintenance and litter picking at Ruskington community garden with help and guidance from Ruskington Parish Council. With helping out one of the local communities around Sleaford, the cadets learnt when to plant, how to care for your garden and what helps local wildlife throughout the seasons. It was a pleasure to see the cadets get hands on work, helping one of many community projects in the area.
