Reserve Forces’ and Cadets’ Association for Greater London (GL RFCA)
GL RFCA plays a leading role in strengthening the environment for Reservists and cadets across London.
GL RFCA is the focal point for Reserves and cadets of all three Services in London. We came into existence in 1908 at the same time as the Territorial Army, as did 12 other autonomous Reserve Forces and cadets Associations (RFCAs) spread throughout the United Kingdom.
We help the combat-readiness of the Reserves, enhancing the operational capability of the Armed Forces as a whole. For the cadets, we ensure safe buildings for their use and assist with the recruitment, administration and establishment of new cadet units.
We do this by managing 150 plus sites across the capital. We engage with local authorities, organisations and companies of all sizes, in every business sector, to advocate on behalf of the wider Armed Forces family and support London’s youth organisations, helping opportunity and education.
