Provider Information

Service Description:
The Army Cadet Force (ACF) is one of the foremost national voluntary youth movements in the UK today. It is sponsored by, but independent of the British Army and provides 45,000 boys and girls between the ages of 12 and 18 with an exciting programme of military themed, adventurous, community and educational activities.

The Army Cadet Force actively wants it cadets to succeed. All cadets start by learning the basics before moving on to the ACF Star Cadet Awards - starting at one star and moving all the way through to four. Achieve that and cadets can be put forward for an assessment course to be recognised as a Master Cadet.

As cadets progress through each stage they'll learn more and more advanced techniques in all subjects. They'll also be given a training role where they can develop their own teaching techniques by teaching the younger or less experienced cadets in their detachment.
ACF activities are as varied as they are exciting.
