Members of 1145 (City of Dunfermline) Air Cadet Squadron are going the extra mile to raise funds in the name of former cadet, Captain David Seath.
We were delighted to announce the squadron’s incredible 20-mile fundraising challenge earlier this month, and now it’s time to get to know the cadets and leaders getting involved in the epic Dundee Kiltwalk Mighty Stride on Sunday 17 August 2025.
Next up is Corporal Isla Newlands –
What three words would you choose to describe yourself?
Nice, creative thinker, and chatty.
How long have you been in the air cadets?
I have been an air cadet for about 3 years.
What’s your highlight(s) been so far in the air cadets?
Meeting my best friend Zoe and getting to experience camps and other people.
What’s your favourite sweet?
My favourite sweet is probably marvellous creations, dairy milk.
How does it feel to be raising money in support of the Captain David Seath Memorial Fund?
I think raising any sort of money for charity is a very rewarding thing to get involved with, it makes you feel like you have a place and you’re doing something right. It is for a good cause and it’s a rewarding feeling doing something good.
Top three music tracks for your Kiltwalk soundtrack?
‘Summerboy’ by Lady Gaga because it’s a summery and uplifting song and I would play other songs like that.
Interesting fact about yourself?
I’m an arty person and I love taking care of other people.
We express our sincere thanks to Corporal Newlands for going the extra mile in support of the Captain David Seath Memorial Fund.
