THE Yate and Chipping Sodbury 2509 Air Training Corp has received camping equipment from MP Luke Hall.
The Thornbury and Yate MP donated around £300 worth of equipment which the cadet group might otherwise have been unable to afford.
“Our local cadet forces provide great opportunities for our young people and so to be able to support 2509 Squad with this donation is great,” said Mr Hall.
“Our area has such a wide range of so many enthusiastic community groups so I am delighted I have been able to support the good they do.”
He donated cooking stoves, gas canisters and first aid kits which the corps will use for their annual camping trips.
After MPs were given a 10 per cent pay rise, Mr Hall used the extra money to set up a fund to support local groups.
