The Unit gets an 'Emergency' Upgrade

30th December 2011

Over the Christmas break the unit has received an ‘emergency’ upgrade.  Staff completed the final electrical connections on the new emergency lighting, which cadets helped to install early in December 2011.  At the same time all the old electrical heaters were replaced by new more efficient (and hopefully warmer) ones as well as several sockets also being replaced.  A big thank you to the Cadets and Staff that made this much needed upgrade possible.

Seven cadets from Bury Unit formed a junior boys team for the District 5-A-Side Competition.  Two of the more senior cadets helped out Middleton & Chadderton Unit’s senior boy’s team.  The remaining 5 cadets took to the pitch at Howe Bridge sports centre for the first match against Rochdale and secured a 1-0 victory.  Unfortunately they did not fare as well in the second match against Accrington losing 1-3.  Though they did not bring home any trophies a big well done goes to all those who played.
