*Fire cadets closes in June until September- we’ll get back about any enquiries during July and August*

The Fire Cadet scheme is for young people aged 13-17 years old and is designed to encourage growth in confidence, self-esteem, practical and theoretical skills.

The scheme is run at seven fire stations across South Yorkshire: Elm Lane, Birley Moor, Rotherham, Dearne, Edlington, Cudworth and soon Stocksbridge.

While a Fire Cadet, the young people are enrolled on to a BTEC in Teamwork and Personal skill Level 1.

Although the scheme ends at 18 there are opportunities to continue as a Volunteer Instructor which builds on individual’s leadership and management skills.

To register your interest in the Fire Cadet scheme, please complete our cadet interest form.
