About Suffolk Army Cadets
Suffolk ACF offers challenging military, adventurous and community activities to young people aged 12 to 18. We aim to inspire young people to achieve success in life by fostering confidence, self-reliance, initiative, loyalty, and a sense of service to other people. With detachments across Suffolk, cadets experience training such as fieldcraft exercises, skill at arms, adventure training and more – all while having fun and making lifelong friends. Our passionate team of adult volunteers and professional support staff, help guide and inspire cadets while gaining their own skills and qualifications. Whether you’re a young person looking for challenge and growth or an adult wanting to give back, there’s a place for you in the Suffolk ACF!

Histoires de réussite
Cadet Corporal Moir The ACF has allowed me to come out of my shell and develop my confidence through activities I haven't experienced anywhere else. I’ll hopefully get the chance to go Adventure Training, I'd never get that opportunity if it weren't for the cadets.

Histoires de réussite
Cadet Heath The best thing about cadets isn't just the mix of activities we do, shooting and fieldcraft are my favourites, it's the new friends I've made. It's taught me that girls are better than boys in certain areas which has helped break down that stigma.

2Lt Garwood Being a CFAV can certainly present its own challenges, however the rewards I experience through seeing cadets develop as well as the opportunity to gain qualifications by simply doing activities that I enjoy isn't too bad either!
