If you are in Year 8 or above and fancy an exciting challenge in a world-leading youth organisation, have you thought about the RAF Air Cadets?
Being an air cadet is a rewarding and fulfilling experience. Cadet life is all about challenge, excitement and adventure. Cadets have many opportunities, including UK and overseas camps, leadership courses, air experience flights and pilot training, outdoor pursuits and cyber training.
The focus is always on enjoying yourself while improving your skills. We are not a recruiting organisation for the main RAF. All the skills you’ll learn, and experiences you gain, will benefit whatever career path you choose.
There are already Monmouth Comprehensive school students at the Ross on Wye Squadron so you may be among people you already know – but if not, this organisation can help you build lifelong friendships.
We’re always looking for adult/parent volunteers in various roles, either in uniform or as civilian members of the squadron committee – no military background or experience required.
Please contact 01989 568672 for more information.
