Congratulations to the Northern Ireland Fire & Rescue Service (NIFRS) Newry Cadets who received recognition for their hard work and dedication on our Cadet Scheme on Monday 19 February in Newry Fire Station. Eight young people received Duke of Edinburgh bronze awards and one person received the Gaisce – The President’s Award.
This certification is a fantastic achievement for our Cadets as they have developed a range of skills from leadership, teamwork and determination to complete their training which will travel with them as they progress into the workplace.
The awards are a great testament not only to each individual, but also to the commitment of our volunteer Cadet Leaders who make our Cadet Scheme possible. Newry Cadet Branch representatives Area Commander Dermot Rooney and Group Commander Paul Morrow, and Rachel from Duke of Edinburgh presented the awards.
