Slade Park Fire Cadets

The cadet unit at Slade Fire Station has been running since 2004 and meets on a Monday evening between 18:30pm and 20:30pm term time only.

Slade Fire Cadets train regularly with items of equipment such as ladders, hose and take on tasks such as building improvised dams that can be used on the fire ground.

In addition to the Slade Fire Cadet training nights, they also hold fundraising events with proceeds helping the Slade Unit and local charities, as well as The Fire Fighters Charity.

Along with other Oxfordshire Fire Cadet Units they get the opportunity to attend local and national summer camps.

Slade Fire Cadet Unit welcomes both boys and girls between the ages of 12 and 18 to the unit and our experienced male and female instructors are here to help and guide wherever possible.

We are currently in the process of recruiting more Fire Cadets.
