Exciting News!

1264 Windermere Sqn RAF Air Cadets is on the move!

As some of you may have guessed from our previous post Windermere Sqn is excited to announce we are moving our location.

We have been kindly welcomed to host the Squadron at Windermere School starting from this Month!

After several years of temporary accommodation this is great to finally find the Squadron a long-term home which will allow us to continue our growth.

With this great news we are celebrating with an open evening on Thursday 5th November for all current and any new interested Young people. The Sqn will continue to parade every Thursday from then. Arrival from 1915 for a 1930 start lasting around an hour.

To join the Sqn you must be in Yr8 school year and 12 years old or under 17 years old.
