Local councillors Dave Arnott and Christine Adams joined the Royton Detachment of Greater Manchester Army Cadet Force on their training evening, where they presented a cheque for £400.
Councillor Arnott, who is the only veteran currently serving on Oldham Council, said: “I am delighted to present this donation, which is made on behalf of all three Royton North councillors.”
Councillor Adams added: “We are very pleased to be able to support the ACF in Royton which provides opportunities for 12–18-year-olds to learn new skills, earn real qualifications, make friends, and experience adventure.
"It provides young people with a taste of army life and the chance to develop away from home and see how much they can achieve, while having a lot of fun in the process.”
