2020 Lord-Lieutenant's Cadets

The Lord-Lieutenant Mrs Peaches Golding OBE performed the Investiture of her newly appointed Lord-Lieutenant’s Cadets at the Army Reserve Centre in a socially distanced service. Paul Connolly, Chief Executive Officer of the Bristol Army Cadet Force, welcomed the Cadets and their parents to the Centre, then Wing Commander David Cox MBE read out the individual citations. ‘It is clear from the citations that an amazing group of Cadets will be joining me this year on some of my duties. They demonstrate courage, curiosity, determination and proficiency in a range of skills and stand head and shoulders above their peers,’ Mrs Golding remarked. In a slide presentation showing some of the types of activity the Lord-Lieutenants’ Cadets might expect during their year, she shed light on the range of royal, military, religious, ceremonial and civic engagements that may arise during their year. Due to Covid-19, the Cadets are yet to be issued their uniforms.
