Ringwood Town Mayor, Cllr Barbara Woodifield recently presented a grant aid cheque of £1,000 to 3 Troop Fordingbridge, Hampshire & Isle of Wight Army Cadet Force towards the cost of a replacement trailer and other equipment. SI Bowler of 3 Troop thanked the council for its support and funding.
With no cadet units available within Ringwood, any young people from the town who want to join the detachment must make the journey to Fordingbridge once or twice a week. The cadets regularly support activities in Ringwood such as carnival and will be supporting the new Christmas lights event in December.
