I was delighted that DComd Cdts, Brig Gary McDade, agreed to present Cjt K his @AcctUk Praiseworthy First Aid certificate while at camp last week. He speedily dealt with a head injury of another pupil at school. #lifesaving #firstaid #lifeskills @BandCIACF @ArmyCadetsUK

Another Camp done. Many hundreds of ACS module passes, some promotions, Stars and awards, but more importantly, some lives improved through fun, friendship, belonging and well-being. This is the ACF way. Job done (until September) Commandant out. #BeMore @ArmyCadetsUK

We hosted the Cadet Health Check Team today during Annual Camp. It's great that the Chief of Defence People sends an independent team to temperature check the UK's Cadet Forces, what's going well and what our roadblocks are...
