Story
I have taken on the dual challenge of fundraising for our Royal Marines in need and Taking The Leap - an eyewatering fast rope abseil from the listed roof of Twickenham stadium mirroring the arduous training all Royal Marines face to gain their green beret.
So what will I be doing on 5th October 2012?
Well, I will be trained at the RMR London and then I will be trussed up into a harness and required to climb up into the roof space and fast rope abseil to floor below, watched by no doubt terrified supporters, using the correct procedure. The least you can do is sponsor me!
Why the Royal Marines Charitable Trust Fund?
The Royal Marines Charitable Trust Fund helps Royal Marines and their families when they need it most. They aid the wounded and injured. They give quality of life to those returning from operations. And when the worst happens, they support the families of those who die in service. The RMCTF has the widest purposes of almost any service charity - quite simply, the Royal Marines Charitable Trust Fund will help when others cannot.

What is the Commando Spirit Series?
The Commando Spirit Series of events offers once-in-a-lifetime experiences to test your mettle and gain a rare and privileged insight into what it means to be a Royal Marines Commando today. The events will pit participants against some of the most formidable aspects of the Commando training, stretch them to achieve their fundraising commitment of £10,000 each and buddy them up with a former or serving Royal Marine who will provide motivation and encouragement when the going gets tough. If you have what it takes - you can do this and if you would like to please contact me or email info@commandospirit.com
