2475 Ammanford Squadron Royal Air Force Air Cadets

Two of our staff supported the delivery of the Central Sector Blue Road March, alongside one of our cadets who completed his very first 15km road march 👏

Huge thanks to all the staff for their support, and a massive well done to all the cadets who took on the challenge of marching 15km for the first time — outstanding effort all round! 🥾

Last weekend saw two of our Cadets join others from across the Wing on a Silver Leadership Course. Well done to them both for gaining this qualification. I’m told a fun time was had by all. Huge thanks to WO McAllister and her Team for facilitating this weekend.

Last week our cadets got hands-on with STEM as part of British Science Week!🔬

Over the last three parade nights, teams worked together to design and build rainwater hand-washing stations using limited materials, alongside creating educational resources for primary school children.

The project forms part of the CREST Discovery Award, with cadets completing their workbooks ready for submission.

A great effort from everyone involved and fantastic teamwork on display from our cadets at 2475. Well done all! 👏

Come along, learn new skills, gain qualifications, and be part of something amazing.

Last Saturday (28th March), 2475 Squadron held their Awards Night and Ball at the Diplomat Hotel, Llanelli.

A fantastic evening celebrating our cadets, with many well-deserved awards presented before everyone danced the night away.

A huge thank you to our guest speaker, Wing Commander Amanda Evans, and all our distinguished guests for joining us.

We also said goodbye to two members of our NCO team, Sergeants Scarll and Rees, who are moving on to new opportunities — one joining the Police and the other hoping to train as a paramedic. We wish them every success.

Finally, thank you to our Staff Team, Civilian Committee and parents for the continued support that makes all of this possible.

Diolch.
