On Wednesday 29th November, Cadet Warrant Officer James Munday from 1094 Ely Squadron Royal Air Force Air Cadets met Princess Anne at Huntingdon Fire and Rescue Training Centre at the official opening of the new Training Centre, by the Princess Royal, HRH Princess Anne.
As part of his duties as the Lord Lieutenant’s Cadet for Cambridgeshire, CWO Munday accompanied the Lord Lieutenant of Cambridgeshire, Julie Spence, in greeting Princess Anne and going on a tour of the newly built site.
The tour included demonstrations by the firefighters and training centre instructors performing road traffic collision drills and various rescues of both humans and animals.
Her Royal Highness also enjoyed an exhibition of atrwork designed by students from local schools for the centres conference rooms, as well as speaking with local trainee firefighters.
After the tour concluded, Her Royal Highness unveiled a plaque to commemorate the official opening and she gave a speech congratulating those in attendance and all those who worked on the project, and expressing how much she enjoyed her visit.
This hasn’t been the only Lord Lieutenants event that Cadet Warrant Officer Munday has been on duty. He has previously aided the Deputy Lieutenant Colonel Roger Herriot on this year’s Remembrance Sunday Service and Parade here in Ely, where the Deputy Lieutenant and CWO Munday laid a wreath on behalf of the Lord Lieutenancy.
Two other events which CWO Munday has performed duties on included attending a Citizenship Ceremony with Deputy Lieutenant James Buxton, and visiting Costello Medical in Cambridge with The Lord Lieutenant, which was attended by HRH The Duke of Gloucester.
