    I’m sure everyone in the @aircadets will join me in sending sincere condolences to the family of Cadet Nathaniel Shani, who yesterday lost his life in tragic circumstance. We will provide the very best support we can to his family and the volunteers & cadets at his ATC Squadron

    So very sorry to hear that we lost a young cadet to suicide this BH weekend. Devastating for all who knew and loved him. Please, Cadets and staff, speak up if you are feeling down; ask for help, it’s OK to not be OK. Help is at hand - just reach out.

    You know, for all the things we still need to fix in our organisation, when thousands of young cadets turn out in the bitter cold to show their respects to the Fallen, we must be doing something right. Could not be prouder of cadets & staff. Thank you.

    Being in lockdown doesn’t mean standards have to drop - dressing for dinner is a must on your birthday!

    It was simply wonderful to introduce our Royal Patron to these 3 @aircadets who call themselves the Flying Fish - the epitome of our motto ‘venture adventure’ and inspired by our Ambassador @RAF_Emma they are training to row the Atlantic in 2025

    Sad news today: Charlie the tri-paw has gone to Doggy Heaven. 😢. No need for condolence messages - just wanted my team to know as so many cadets met and loved him at various cadet events. He was a star!

    Although face to face cadet activity has been suspended temporarily, remember we are all part of one air cadet family. Look after each other, keep in touch and consider how you can keep connected via social media. We will be back!!!!

    It’s a very special day for Mrs K as she graduates from the @OpenUniversity with a BSc in Psychology. She left school with no qualifications to join the @RoyalAirForce as YTS age 17, so this is huge. Very proud of my wife and her dedication to life long learning 😘
