Fire cadet stories

Be inspired

Our cadets take part in fun and inclusive experiences, providing them with the opportunities to develop skills in leadership, resilience, socialising and confidence; all whilst learning new practical and transferable skills to build their future. 

The course offers an exciting range of topics, contributing to achieving a National Fire Chiefs Council Fire Cadet Award, as well as enhancing their personal development, covering Level 1 water safety, CPR awareness and a greater understanding of what other emergency services offer.
