CADETS from Marham are climbing their way to success in the Duke of Edinburgh's Award scheme.
The members of 864 (Marham) DF Air Training Corps are using a climbing wall for the physical section of the Award. They have already started the Expedition section which they will complete later this year.
The unit's newest recruit - 13 year-old Jordan Taylor said: 'It was brilliant', while 15 year-old Alex Owen from Shouldham added: 'It gave me a real adrenalin rush.'
Their climbing instructor - SAC Lisa Conway said: 'For beginners, they have progressed really well.'
SAC Conway has devised a challenging programme for the cadets to meet the requirements of the award.
The unit commander, Flight Lieutenant Tony Hall said: 'This is yet another great example of the excellent facilities provided for Air Cadets at Marham.'
