BHQ CFAVs attended a dedicated welfare workshop, gaining practical skills to recognise concerns, respond with confidence & actively promote wellbeing.

The session fostered safer spaces, strengthened resilience & forms a key part of our ongoing strategy to support Cadets & CFAVs

Strong leadership in the Army Cadets starts with the RSMs.

RSMI Robby Thompson sets the standard for discipline & maintains excellence across the Battalion.

Cadet RSM Macy McAtamney leads by example, inspiring peers & representing cadets at the highest.

@2NIACF Thinking of Jaidyn’s loved ones and detachment at this difficult time. Her loss is felt across the Battalion.

[Army Cadets Northern Ireland 2nd Battalion @ArmyCadets2NI]

We are deeply saddened by the passing of Army Cadet Jaidyn Rice (Clarke) of Gransha Detachment, 2nd (NI) Bn ACF.

Jaidyn will be remembered for her leadership, humour, and dedication.

Our thoughts are with her family, friends, and all who knew her.

Rest in peace, Jaidyn.
