The Office of the Lord-Lieutenant

Lord-Lieutenant’s Cadet

The Lord-Lieutenant may appoint young people from the Cadet Forces as Lord-Lieutenant’s Cadet. The tenure is from Armed Forces Day and usually for one year although may be extended. 

The Lord-Lieutenant is delighted to announce the extension of an appointment for a second year to Cadet Warrant Officer Connor McCairn, 1777 Air Cadet Squadron RAFAC, Dumbarton.

Mrs Young has added the new appointments of Able Cadet Ewan Murray, TS Queen Elizabeth, Clydebank Sea Cadets and Cadet Sergeant Lauren Carr, Argyll & Sutherland Highlanders Battalion ACF.

When on duty, Lord-Lieutenant’s Cadets wear a distinctive badge on their uniform of their appointment and to denote their role. They assist the Lord-Lieutenant as required – often on parade for Royal visits – and act as ambassadors for their organisations and the young people of Dunbartonshire.
