1208 Warsop Squadron

1208 Warsop Squadron With the ATC, you have the opportunity to do things that others only dream of. We’re located in the Central and East Region, Trent Wing.

1208 (Warsop) Squadron is part of the Air Training Corps, which operates under the umbrella of the Royal Air Force Air Cadets. Our motto, Pride and Achievement, drives us to offer a wide range of activities, including leadership, first aid, STEM, drill, DofE, and much more. We take pride in everything we do! Our cadets have the opportunity to attend camps, meet other young people from across the c

ountry, and make lifelong friends. The ATC is supported by Adult Volunteers and Committee Members, all of whom are trained in safeguarding and various areas of cadet training. While not all volunteers have a military background, we share a common goal: empowering young people to succeed. If you would like to join us as a cadet or adult volunteer please email us at [email protected]

Another fantastic achievement to celebrate from last week!

Congratulations to Cdt Hasedzic, who successfully completed his Bronze iDEA Award, the final component required to achieve his Bronze Cyber Award.

The iDEA programme helps develop digital, enterprise and employability skills through a range of online challenges and activities, making this a great accomplishment.

Well done, Cdt Hasedzic, on your hard work in completing your Bronze Cyber Award. Keep up the excellent work!

On Wednesday Cadet Hasedzic successfully completed his Leading Cadet classification exams, earning himself his Leading Cadet badge!

This is a fantastic achievement and reflects the hard work and effort he has put into his training and revision.

Well done on reaching this milestone in your RAF Air Cadets journey, we look forward to seeing your continued progress on squadron!

As our final Volunteers’ Week recognition post, we want to say a huge thank you to our Civilian Committee, Ade, Dan, Sharon, Gael and Nicola.

They work hard behind the scenes to support the squadron in so many ways. From fundraising and administration to helping at events and making sure opportunities can continue to be provided for our cadets (and providing a cracking bacon and sausage buttie for Remembrance Sunday breakfast), they play a massive part in keeping the squadron running.

A lot of what they do is never really seen, but their support and commitment make a real difference to both the squadron and our cadets. Thank you for everything you do.

Unfortunately not everyone was available for photos, but we still wanted to recognise and thank the whole team for everything they do for the squadron.

For Volunteers’ Week, we’re recognising Sgt Prince, our Squadron Adjutant, for an incredible 15 years of service with the RAF Air Cadets.

Sgt Prince first joined the organisation in 2002 as a cadet, ageing out in 2008 and becoming a Civilian Instructor (CI) at 2326 Squadron spending a further 4 years in this role. Then after a 10 year break away from RAFAC, he returned to the organisation as a CI at 1208 Squadron, continuing his passion for supporting cadets and squadron life.

In 2024, he achieved one of his proudest RAFAC milestones by returning to uniformed service as a Sergeant. He now serves as our Squadron Adjutant, helping keep the squadron running smoothly behind the scenes.

Thank you, Sgt Prince, for your dedication, commitment and 15 years of service to the RAF Air Cadets.

As part of Volunteers’ Week, we’d like to recognise and thank Sgt Newton for her dedication and commitment to the RAF Air Cadets over the last 9 years.

Sgt Newton joined the RAF Air Cadets in 2017 and transferred to 1208 Squadron as a CWO in 2022. After aging out at the end of 2023, she took a short break before returning in 2024 as a Civilian Instructor. At the end of 2025, she became uniformed staff and has continued supporting cadets ever since.

She is currently the Squadron SNCO and leads recruit training, helping guide new cadets through the start of their RAFAC journey and supporting them as they develop confidence, skills, and discipline.

One of her proudest achievements within the RAF Air Cadets has been taking part in the Nijmegen Marches, demonstrating exceptional perseverance, teamwork, and dedication throughout the challenge.

Thank you for your continued hard work and support for our cadets and squadron.

As part of Volunteers’ Week, we’d like to also recognise and thank our newest member of the team, Sgt Nowakowski for his dedication and commitment to the RAF Air Cadets over the last 9 years.

Joining as a cadet in 2017, Sgt Nowakowski aged out as a CWO in 2024 before going straight into uniform as a CFAV on his 20th birthday. Having spent time at 384 Mansfield, 204 Lincoln, and 1238 North Hykeham before joining our squadron, he brings a wealth of experience and enthusiasm to the team.

Sgt Nowakowski’s favourite memories in the RAF Air Cadets include flying in a Chinook and visiting RAF stations across the UK, but his biggest achievement is the positive impact he has on young people and seeing cadets develop valuable life skills and confidence.

Thank you for your continued hard work, dedication, and support for our cadets and squadron.

As part of Volunteers’ Week, we’d like to say a huge thank you to FS Taylor, our Officer in Charge, for her incredible dedication to the RAF Air Cadets over the last 19 years.

Starting as a cadet before returning as staff in 2014, going into uniform in 2017, and becoming OIC in 2022, FS Taylor has held a number of roles including Training Officer, Squadron SNCO, and Media Officer.

Alongside supporting the squadron, she also helps the wider Wing on courses and camps throughout the year and represents the RAF Air Cadets annually at RIAT as part of the Cadet Detachment.

Thank you for your continued hard work, commitment, and support for our cadets and squadron.

As it’s Volunteers’ Week, we just wanted to say a big thank you to all of our amazing volunteers at the squadron.

From our Cadet Forces Adult Volunteers who give up their evenings, weekends and holidays to support and guide our cadets, to our Civilian Committee who work hard behind the scenes to keep things running smoothly, we simply couldn’t do what we do without you.

Every parade night, activity, camp and opportunity our cadets get is only possible because of the time, effort and commitment our volunteers give so generously.

Thank you for everything you do for the squadron and our cadets. It really is appreciated by staff, cadets and parents alike.

Happy Volunteers’ Week!
