On Monday, 16th June a Pass Out Parade was held at Abercrave Fire Station to celebrate the achievements of the latest group of Mid and West Wales Fire and Rescue Service (MAWWFRS) Fire Cadets.
Fire Cadets is a national uniformed youth organisation supported by the National Fire Chiefs Council and run by individual Fire and Rescue Services throughout the UK.
The aim of the Fire Cadets Programme is to create safer communities through developing young people’s knowledge and skills of the Fire and Rescue Service. Helping raise awareness of the importance of keeping safe from fire in a fun, safe and secure environment.
Over the course of the last two-years these dedicated young people have learnt a wide range of valuable skills and techniques through Fire Station ground training and education in the classroom. They Cadets have gained a Fire Cadets qualification and were presented with an achievement certificate from Station Manager Mark Ayling.
Fire Cadets Co-Ordinator Karen Mayze said:
“It was a proud moment for the Abercrave Fire Cadets class of 2025 as they passed out in front of their families and the local community. They have shown incredible dedication, teamwork, and growth throughout their time on the cadet programme. They leave the programme as confident, capable, and inspiring young individuals. Congratulations to you all.”
