Gravesend Air Cadets are taking part in a press-up challenge to commemorate the 22 soldiers who take their lives every day.

The 402 squadron is one of many Kent-based cadet groups to take on Challenge 22 to raise awareness for the cause.

Every single cadet will complete 22 press-ups for 22 parade nights, and nominate another squadron each time.
