12F hosted our second annual Brooksbank Trophy Competition, in memory of the late Flt Lt Richard Brooksbank, an ex squadron OC.

The cadets competed in in a wide range of events, including leadership, stretcher run and an escape room task to find the best section on the squadron.

A big well done to 4 section led by Cdt Bruce who were the winners of the day! 🥇

We recently held the sectors bi-annual recruit camp. A weekend that pushes the recruits to their limits, allowing them to see what they are capable of in a safe, training environment. Over the weekend they participated in leadership activities, first aid scenarios, a night exercise and much more!

A special shout-out to Cdt Seddon for being nominated “best recruit” of the weekend.
