It was a privilege to support the Mayor and Pocklington Detachment Army Cadets as the Poppy Appeal Organiser and Town Crier last night for National Cadet Week.

The cadets will soon be out in force to support this years Poppy Appeal.

Keep your eyes peeled during the weekends leading up to Remembrance Sunday.

Pocklington Poppy Appeal will officially launch on Saturday 24th October.

Last night I was privileged to be invited to an Open Evening at Pocklington Detachment of the Army Cadets as part of their National Cadet Week.

The Army Cadet Force provides young people with a wonderful opportunity to develop confidence, discipline, teamwork and leadership skills, while making new friends and taking part in a wide range of activities.

It encourages young people to take responsibility, challenge themselves and support others — qualities that benefit them throughout their lives. Just as importantly, our cadets make a valuable contribution to the local community, and we should be proud of the commitment and enthusiasm they demonstrate. Keep your eye open for them in the upcoming weeks supporting the National poppy Appeal and Remembrance Parade.
