A great video showing Police Cadets at the ‘new’ Police HQ, Aykley Heads in the early 70’s.
At the time the cadet school had approx. one hundred & fifty (150) cadets from Durham, Northumbria, Cleveland, North Yorkshire & Junior Firemen.
The cadets were residential in the five accommodation blocks, Finlay, Bede, Harwick, Lambton & Neville.
This film from the British Film Institute is titled ‘The Police Cadet 1973’ although the footage is actually from the early 70’s through to about 1974
