Default Royal Signals Cadet Units

Does any one have a list of the Royal Signals Cadet Units in Britain? I am aware that there are a few sponsored by R Signals but have no idea how many there are or where they are.

I will be able to give you the definitve answer on that when I get back to work on Monday. Short answer is that there are loads of Royal Signals badged cadet detachments (I would think that there are over 100).

Wait out.

Thanks guys. Sounds like there is a whole lot of cadet units and no doubt unauthorized cloth insignia.

You will also find a number of schools that have badged signals troops. Bournemouth School CCF mostly wear the RLC badge but their Signals Tp wear RSIGNALS.
