History

Cadet Forces can trace their beginnings to 1859 when there was a threat of invasion by the French. 

As the 1859 invasion did not materialise. The cadet movement continued, however, because many social workers and teachers saw in it great value as an organisation for the benefit of boys, particularly bearing in mind the appalling conditions in which so many of them lived in. Among these pioneer workers was Miss Octavia Hill wha had done a great deal to establish the National Trust. She realised that cadet training was important for character training and although she was certainly not a militarist, she formed the Southwark Cadet Company in order to introduce the boys of the slums of that area to the virtues of Order, Integrity, Cleanliness, Teamwork, and Self Reliance.

The Cadet Training Centre (CTC) at Frimley Park, Surrey, was opened in 1959. This centre provides courses for the Adults of the ACF and CCF and also the greatly valued Leadership Courses which is held in the summer for a limited number of Senior Cadets.
