Flash back to 23 Apr last year when SofS Ministry of Defence 🇬🇧 visited troops on Op RESCRIPT; ably hosted by Comdt Altcar Trg Camp @NorthWestRFCA


New addition funded by @NorthWestRFCA - 16 signs showing the “Values and Standards” of the Sea Cadets Army Cadets UK & RAF Air Cadets as you drive into the heart of Altcar Training Camp . No excuse for our cadets not knowing them now!


Pictures don’t tell all the story, but OUTSTANDING work carried out at Altcar Training Camp this weekend by reservists from 75 Engineer Regiment. Great trade training making the site better. Thank you Commanding_Officer for your support. @NorthWestRFCA Maj Gen John Kendall Deputy Commander Field Army


Reminder: Public must not trespass when live firing taking place. 4x4 gets individuals from tide line; gets stuck. Tractor goes to recover 4x4; gets stuck. Both vehicles lost to the tide. Great expense to the taxpayer. HM Coastguard Merseyside Police aware.


Comdt Altcar Training Camp wants a tidy camp - Saturday walk sees CE @NorthWestRFCA & his wife litter picking. HQ Merseyside ACF outside areas now litter free!!


Thank you for your forbearance residents & readers of Hightown Village Formby Bubble Formby Reporter Crosby Bubble. Essential night shoot by 4th BATTALION, THE PARACHUTE REGIMENT this last evening; plenty of rounds down the range. Important training for our reservists.
