Leading Cadet Christopher Robinson of Fitzalan School Combined Cadet Force was appointed as a Lord-Lieutenant cadet for South Glamorgan for 2022 by Her Majesty’s Lord-Lieutenant of South Glamorgan Mrs Morfudd Meredith at a virtual ceremony held on Thursday, February 24.

The role which lasts for a year includes attendance with Mrs Meredith, who acts as the Queen’s representative, at a number of official engagements such as Remembrance events, Royal visits and parades.

Mrs Meredith said, “The Cadet Forces are amazing organisations, where the mixture of military training, youth work, civilian qualifications and community work helps develop our young people ready to take their place in society.”

Christopher was also lucky enough to be selected for a Royal Navy Flying Scholarship before half term and after successful completion has been awarded his Bronze Wings.

Well done Christopher! We are all very proud of you and your achievements.
