Great day out with the RAF Cadets today!
I was so impressed to see how confident, articulate and thoughtful these young people are. Thanks to the RAF and all the adult volunteers for making this happen. This is opportunity and social mobility in action! Really proud to announce a 30% increase in Cadets by 2030 as an investment in our young people and in the nation as a whole. Keep smashing it!!
Being a cadet doesn't just build character, it transforms futures.
It's why we are increasing numbers by 30% by 2030 with a new investment of £70m.
@AlistairCarns hears why that will make a difference at the National Air & Space Camp

Congratulations on the excellent planning and execution, demonstrating to industry the value of our cadet forces aptly timed with the government announcement this morning to expand and invest £70m across cadets.
The careers fair at #AirAndSpaceCamp Industry Day is well underway. With over 2000 cadets engaging with 75 plus industry partners!
A fantastic chance for our brilliant @aircadets to discover careers in a variety of sectors including air, space and cyber.

This article highlights a serious issue. Boys need better role models. But the @ArmyCadetsUK @aircadets @SeaCadetsUK @CCFCadets are already showing we can tackle this. Here's how 🧵

#AirAndSpaceCamp 25 is taking off, with the first cadets getting airborne courtesy of 7 AEF at RAF Cranwell.
We’re looking forward to giving our cadets more chances to take to the skies this week - in both gliders and powered aircraft.

Great to see this project finally start, it will deliver significant benefits for @395_RAFAC @staffswing @WandWAirCadets and @Staffsacf

If you've ever dreamed of soaring through the skies in a glider & are aged between 16 (on 01/07/25) and 25 years old you can apply for a week-long residential course in summer next year.
Applications close on 25th Feb, 2025 at noon: airpilots.org/scholarships/f…
Outstanding support from our service colleagues and industry partners today, helping to deliver such a rewarding day for the RAFAC.
Lots of Armed Forces personnel joined us on the #AirAndSpaceCamp Industry Day this year and our cadets made the most of finding out about the different trades and roles they perform, as well as entry routes and requirements.

What a fantastic view for one of #AirAndSpaceCamp’s 2022 participants, are there many better experiences than gliding in the @aircadets?
We are looking forward to getting more cadets in the air at #RAFACNASC 2023!
