Yesterday I spent an excellent day at Redford Barracks Edinburgh with Cadet Pipes & Drums. This was a brilliant competition and a first-class standard shown by everyone. My congratulations to cadets and adults alike. And thank you for inviting me to present the prizes.

Happy International Dogs Day from @ACCTUK's CEO Murdo & his pups Impi & Ares! Photo challenges included... uncoordinated poses, tongues out and water in welly boots 😬 But who can stay mad at these cuties? 🐾❤️ #dogday #doglovers

It’s been over a month since we hosted @IGLA1987 in London. I’ve been reflecting on what a wonderful experience it was. We saw such joy in aquatics sport and I’m so proud to have been a part of IGLA history - see you next year in Buenos Aires!

Saw this yesterday - truly heartbreaking. @ArmyCadetsUK - if you a cadet is on free school meals there is an entitlement to reduce feeding costs! Many counties or sectors can help in other ways too. Please talk to your CEO if you are unsure @ACF_NELondon @adamswa0401
