im currently an officer cadet in the army, i joined the army whilst im at uni because the RAF only cater for pilots (for students at uni atleast). now 2yrs (4 yr course) on i have obtained over half my PPL. my question is am i able to transfer to a RAF squadron to complete my training and/or keep up my flying hours? or if there is a way i can do this within the army? thank you for your time.

You would have probably already heard if thee was a UAS operating on your campus. Give these guys and girls a shot on google and see what you can find.

Otherwise carry on as normal, and apply for the RAF when you finihs your studies.

RAF only caters for pilots. Pah!

In short, I very much doubt it.. But you could apply to join the RAF or AAC flying clubs which offer cheaper flying/instruction than you'll get at any civvy club. Or join the RAF as a pilot.
