The Army Cadet Force (ACF) is for males and females aged 13 to 18. It is the British Army's youth organisation with over 50,000 members, including 10,000 girls and 8,000 volunteer leaders. There are more than 1,700 Units across the country. And you don't have to join the army because you are in the ACF - there is no pressure to sign up. |
You will meet one or two evenings a week, or at weekends to train for or take part in various activities such as: shooting, adventure training, foreign visits and exchanges, ceremonial parades, drill, field craft, map and compass, Duke of Edinburgh award, climbing, abseiling, sports, combat exercises, training with the regular army and TA, command tasks, leadership training, skill at arms, expeditions, signals training and many other competitions. You will also take part in annual camp which is a two week adventure using all the skills you've learned in previous training exercises.
A uniform is provided and all activities are supervised by properly qualified ACF or Army instructors.
If you are interested in joining the London Scottish Cadet units please come along to your nearest detachment (see below) or visit the Army Cadet Force web site at: www.armycadets.com.
