Cadets Support the Birmingham War Widows Association

On Saturday 7 th March, Flt Lt Westacott led a team of 10 cadets to parade at St Paul's Church in the heart of Birmingham in support of the Birmingham War Widows Association.

The cadets were initially asked to provide a guard of honour for the Lord Mayor of Birmingham and following this, they then acted as ushers for the church service itself.

The Cadets then carried out collecting duties, and were also asked to lay down the British Legion colours at the end of the parade. There was a wide range of people at the event, from World War Two widows, to widows of service men who have only recently died in Afghanistan and Iraq.

The cadets were thanked for all their hard work and their attendance on the day. The Sqn now looks forward to parading again at St Paul's for the St Georges day parade in April.
