Volunteering

Volunteering with the CCF can have just as much of a positive impact on your life as on the lives of the young people you are supporting. Hear from current volunteers and learn more about the role.

Find out more about what volunteers with the CCF do, and how you can get involved.

Every CCF is reliant on volunteers to support the training and development of the cadets. Volunteers typically come from within the school community, although members of the wider community are also often involved, particularly if they have links to the school, for example parents and former pupils.

Volunteers do not need any military experience, just enthusiasm and willingness to learn new skills. As well as being a very rewarding experience, volunteering with a cadet unit can lead to fully-accredited qualifications in a wide range of activities and disciplines.

If you are interested in joining your local CCF as an adult volunteer, please get in touch with the school directly. Volunteer recruitment is carried out locally by individual CCF Contingents, and volunteers who are not from the school staff will need to undergo Disclosure Barring Service (DBS) checks before appointment.
