Last Saturday cadets spent their day assisting the Royal British Legion in selling poppies and they are doing it again today at the Brooks Retail Park. Come and say hello and get your poppy in time for Remembrance Sunday 🙂

Every year we come together to remember the sacrifices made for us today. On remembrance Sunday we will be marching to Clacton's cenotaph for the service. Please come and join us and wear your poppy with pride! #aircadets #whatwedo

Cadets will be selling poppies outside of Tescos and around the area!

Over the past week 15 cadets from 1830 and many other cadets from squadrons all over Essex Wing got together for the Annual Green Camp. Here they took part in kayaking, paintball, field craft, navigational exercises, leadership, archery and many other activities. This is the biggest camp that is run by the wing consisting of 100 + cadets. (Any pictures you wish to share by all means do so)
