You can join us if you are between 12 (and in school year 8) and 16 years of age. Cadets are able to stay until they are 20 years of age, subject to certain restrictions like DBS/CRB checks upon reaching their 18th birthday.

If you would like to find out how to join, please email oc.155@rafac.mod.gov.uk and we will send you the joining forms (or they can be downloaded below) and return them electronically to us and then join as a cadet and start engaging in parade nights. Once we have received your signed forms back, you will be provided with access to our portal to view the training schedule. Please check your spam/junk folder for emails as we are aware of some issues.

New cadets will not require any special equipment or uniform and will be given basic training in subjects like the RAF, ATC, First Aid, principles of flight as well as some practical subjects including Drill and Weapons handling.

Once this part of the basic training has been completed, cadets will be able to take part in a much wider range of activities, such as flying, gliding and also be eligible to attend summer camps and adventure training weekends.

Any Adults wishing to join the Air Cadet organisation should contact me diectly in the first instance. Please email to oc.155@rafac.mod.gov.uk and I will contact you back to discuss the otions and process. Alternatively, you can visit www.aircadets.tv for more information.
