There is no upper age limit to join as a chaplain, but you must be capable of carrying out the activities associated with your role and be able to offer a three-year commitment.
There are security and child protection checks and clearances. You will be required to attend interviews with the Regional Senior Chaplain followed by attendance at a regional Army Cadets Commissions Board where your suitability to work in the Army Cadets will be further assessed.
Following successful selection, you will be attached to a county or area ACF, where you will undergo basic familiarisation supported by a Senior Regular Chaplain and an experienced ACF Chaplain. You will undertake initial training at the Armed Forces Chaplaincy Centre, Shrivenham and have the opportunity to attend further annual continuation training.
Your principal commitment is to the annual camp which generally lasts between 10 and 14 days. You would also be expected to visit training evenings and weekends.
