Cadet of the year competition

Nathan is presented with his Cadet of the Year certificate

Nathan writes, 'I was lucky enough to represent my county at the National Cadet of the year competition, which allowed me to develop my personal skills – and have lots of fun in the meantime!'

A life-changing experience

'I was nervous before attending the Cadet of the year competition, because I wouldn’t know anyone there!  However, this soon changed: by the time the first evening was over, everybody was talking to each other as if we had been friends for ages!

'The weekend included icebreakers, interviews, games, a disco and presentation skills.

'I think it was a life changing experience to go and I would love to do it again if I could.'
