West Mercian Wing is one of six wings in Wales and West Region. We support 27 squadrons with over 900 cadets, 200 volunteers and 150 trustees across Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin, Herefordshire, Worcestershire, the Black Country, and Cyprus.
Each squadron is run by dedicated volunteers, and behind every squadron is a team of trustees who help make the cadet experience possible. The unique opportunities offered by each squadron – such as equipment, additional skills, local activities, and memorable experiences – are made possible through local support and charitable contributions.
