Dartford Volunteer Police Cadets visited Age UK, Dartford on 20/12/23, giving out hand written cards by the cadets and some nice chocs to help put a smile on the faces of the lovely people in the community. They made a real difference by spending time there. #communityspirit

Dartford Volunteer Police Cadet Leaders and Cadet, dropped off donations from Kent Police staff to the Food Bank in Dartford on Tuesday 19th Dec 2023. The food bank was really busy and they were very grateful for the donations and especially this time of year.

Last week of term for most of our units! Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Canterbury VPC unit smashed it last night with their induction evening to our new cadets with a drill demonstration, RIM training, first aid scenario and cadet speeches!

Sadly due to worsening forecasts of thunder and flooding in the area, for the safety of the cadets this expedition has been curtailed to a single day training one. We'll be back out in the spring!
