Being a Cadet offers you the opportunity to learn and use first aid, as well as have fun and adventures.

To become a Cadet just email us and will will discuss current opportunities. Our cadet unit is very popular, so there could be a small delay before you can join.

Training and events

Before enrolling, Cadets complete their Membership Award which explores what being a Cadet is all about and gives them a taste of first aid. Once Cadets have completed the Membership Award they will have the opportunity to attend public events and see first aid in action.

The next stage is completing the Young First Aider course, which provides opportunities which enable them to put their first aid and communication skills into practice by helping provide first aid cover at public events.

Grand Prior Award

Cadets take part in a full programme working towards their Grand Prior Award. At each award stage you will be given a badge to wear on your uniform.

Duke of Edinburgh Award

Cadets can also undertake the Duke of Edinburgh Award scheme once 14 years old. Bradley Stoke can start you on your way or support people already involved with the scheme.

And there's much more
