In August we hosted our Annual General Meeting of our Civilian Committee who play a fundamental role in the running of the Squadron, not only do they support with all things financial but also support with Welfare. It was great to see so many come out to support the evening.

Whilst the AGM was taking place, it was an evening of silly games and team work for the cadets and families.

September marks the 70th Anniversary of some of the first The Duke of Edinburgh's Award expeditions in 1956.

The Squadron has always been very active with all things Duke of Edinburgh Award with cadets completing across all levels, and high amount of cadets aspiring to their Gold Awards. Over the last year we have seen 5 Gold Awards achieved at 2515 Squadron which is a fantastic achievement for the individuals as well as the staff who support and put on all the expeditions.

Once a cadet achieves their Gold Awards they are invited to Buckingham Palace to celebrate their success with a Garden Party Event. This summer 2 of our Gold cadets attending their celebration ceremonies huge congratulations to both CWO Ringrose and CWO Blackmore-Wells.

Recently we ran a safety night at the Squadron, including a mini scavenger hunt around Fordingbridge to locate all the 24/7 AEDs, our emergency rendezvous points as well as a quick Run Hide Tell practice, which highlighted that some cadets need a little more practice on their hiding techniques.

A fun evening but with a serious safety message behind it. Ones we hope to never have to use but being prepared saves lives!
