On Wednesday 24th June the unit ran it’s Annual General Meeting at the unit, there was a small turn out of Mayors and supporters. The meeting went very well with a good solid reflection of the unit’s outcomes over the past year, looking at how it is running. One note to mention from it is that the cadet qualifications in 2013/2014 was 260, 2014/2015 is now 351! A huge increase of 91 qualifications gained by cadets, Adults also had a rise in qualifications, 2013/2014 was 46, 2014/2015 is now 152. This gives us an overall qualification gain of 503 a difference of 197. Very well done to all cadets and adults who get away and qualified!
Plus the volunteers to train them and transport them!
