THE Lord Lieutenant’s Cadets Awards took place in the Town Hall recently.

The event is the occasion when the four outgoing Lord Lieutenants’ Cadets (essentially ADCs to Lady Darnley) are thanked for their service and four new Lord Lieutenant’s Cadets are invested in their appointment.

Each cadet force unit in Herefordshire provides a Lord Lieutenant’s Cadet – the Combined Cadet Force (shared between Hereford Cathedral School and Lucton School), the Sea Cadet Corps, the Army Cadet Force, and the Air Training Corps.

Outgoing cadets Cadet Sergeant Liberty Perry Lucton CCF, Cadet Petty Officer Sophie Gooch SCC, Cadet Sergeant James Mumford ATC and Cadet Sergeant Millie Jenkins ACF each gave a presentation to an audience that included the High Sheriff, chairman and vice chairman of Herefordshire Council, the Mayor of Hereford.
