Bring on #CARAs2020

The CARAs are Cadet nominated awards which recognise and thank Cadet Force Adult Volunteers.

Year in, year out, Cadet Force Adult Volunteers (CFAVs) selflessly dedicate their time and energy to ensure Cadets get the most from their Cadet Experience. It is our hope that The CARAs will give Cadets across the Lowlands an opportunity to say thank you to the volunteers who mean so much to them.
