πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Remembrance Sunday 2025 πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§

On Sunday, cadets and staff from 1104 (Pendle) Squadron, were honoured to participate in the Remembrance Parades held in Colne and Nelson.

The Squadron joined members of the Armed Forces, veterans, civic leaders, and the local community in paying tribute to all those who have made the ultimate sacrifice in the service of our nation.

Our cadets conducted themselves with the highest standards of respect, discipline, and professionalism throughout both parades and services. Their exemplary bearing is a reflection of their commitment to upholding the values of the Royal Air Force Air Cadets.

We will remember them. 🌺

Silver DofE practice Day 2 ⛰️

Today cadets took on the challenge of reaching the summit of the pike of Blisco, although the weather was much nicer today.

This challenged their mental and physical resilience with a steep ascent and some introductions to some small scrambles.

Despite the challenge all cadets reached the summit and finished the weekend with smiles on their faces.

Well done all
