// ABOUT THE PROGRAM

BUILDING TOMORROW'S
FIRST RESPONDERS

The Cadets Program is designed to inspire, train, and prepare young individuals to develop discipline, leadership, and practical skills in a structured and supportive environment. It serves as a foundation for those interested in community service, emergency response, or personal development.

If you are under 18 years of age, you can join as a cadet. Categories range from Junior Cadets (6–9), Cadets (10–14), Senior Cadets (14–16), to Assistant Leaders (16+).

Being a cadet is not just about training — it's about building character, serving the community, and laying the foundation for a future of service and leadership.

Youth Exchanges

Supported by Erasmus+, we participate in international youth exchanges annually — both as a sending organisation (youths going abroad) and a hosting organisation (welcoming youths from abroad).
