Adventure Training

FS Cooksey briefing cadets on the night exerciseThe cadets and staff of 1187 Squadron regularly organize adventure training activities. Examples of these are expeditions, camping, escape and evasion exercises (often at night). 

As well as these squadron organized activities there is a thriving Wing adventure training group which organizes expeditions to Wales the Lake District and beyond.

Activities take place in both winter and summer, depending on the experience of the cadets involved and can include rock-climbing, abseiling, canoeing and hillCadets Rowe and Williams enjoying ration pack meals walking. Expedition training is carried out to enable cadets to qualify for the Duke of Edinburgh's Award.
