Uniformed Protective Services (UPS) group RAF Leeming trip
Our Uniformed Protective Services students have enjoyed an action-packed trip to RAF Leeming.
Twenty eight learners, plus tutors Aidan Harding and Andy Reah, took part in the field trip. They were treated to a presentation by the counter-drone unit and demonstrations in thermal imaging and drone technology from the 90 Signalers.
Organised by the base’s Media, Communications & Engagement Officer, Zoe Davis, the day also included a fascinating visit to the mountain rescue unit.
We are grateful to RAF Leeming and Zoe for making this experience both memorable and inspirational for our students.
