Belford army cadets have done it again by winning the County First Aid Championships in their age group. The cadets also came second in the overall championships only losing out to the Brigade champions. The test involved an individual and written examination for each member of the team plus a team test involving a casualty situation. The team were from left to right Cadet Hannah Parker, L/cpl Megan Smith, Cpl Craig Holman, L/Cpl Rebecca Riseborough and L/Cpl Gareth Davies.
