About 378 (Mannock) Sqn

378 (Mannock) Squadron is open to all young people aged between 12 and 18 from Wellingborough and the surrounding area. We are the only squadron in the Air Training Corps to have a person's name (Mannock) in our squadron title rather than a town name.


Cadets participate in a wide range of exciting activities run by our qualified volunteer staff and senior cadets. Within your time in the Squadron you will have the opportunity to take part in activities that your friends will only dream of such as flying, shooting and outdoor activities. At the same time, you will develop yourself, grow in confidence and gain qualifications whilst having the time of your life.

The Squadron meets on Monday and Wednesday evenings as well as being involved in attending camps, trips and activities on many weekends.
