CASUALTY
MOULAGE
Casualty simulation is the creation of simulated casualties for use in military and civilian medical training scenarios. ... Sometimes casualty simulation is referred to as moulage. The word moulage comes from the French language meaning to shape or mold. Moulage usually refers to three-dimensional makeup like prosthetics. This is done to enhance our first aid training and services.
EDUCATION
We offer a wide range of programs, skills and training opportunities during our weekly meetings. Our Educational Workshops is centered on instilling strong values into our youth and provides a space for them to expand their mind while meeting new and interesting individuals.

The Cadets take part in the Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award which is the world’s leading youth achievement award, bringing together practical experiences and life skills to create committed global citizens and equipping young people for life. Since it was founded by HRH The Duke of Edinburgh in 1956, over eight million people have participated in the Award in over 140 countries and territories. Every day 548 young people across the world achieve an Award.The Award is open to all young people regardless of their background and circumstances. It is delivered around the world by schools, colleges, universities, employers, social clubs, uniformed and non-uniformed youth organisations, young offenders’ institutions, religious organisations, sports clubs, and a whole host of other civic organisations. Recent Award projects around the world have focused on involving young offenders, street children and former child soldiers. The impact of the Award on these and many more young people is extraordinary: it transforms their lives.
