You might not be aware of this but all RAFAC Squadrons are in fact charities and much of what we do is dictated by available funding. The Royal Air Force Air Cadets removes this responsibility from the Instructors and Uniformed staff and instead places it in the hands of what we call the “Civilian Committee”.
This group of volunteers manage the administrative and financial aspects of the Squadron’s charitable welfare fund and organise all fund raising activities for the Squadron.
In 2017/2018 The Civ Com raised the funds for our new Squadron Flight Simulator, which is loved by both Cadets and Staff.
