I am raising money for both Take The Leap and Escape The Dunker this year! 

What is Take The Leap?

Take The Leap is no ordinary abseil and I abseiled off the very top of the iconic 150ft high Titan Crane in Glasgow with the Royal Marines on the 4th October 2015!

I have abseiled off the Shard, into the bowl of Twickenham Stadium and off the roof of the listed St Pancras Station all for the Commando Spirit Appeal for the RMCTF and now the Titan Crane.

You can see more of what I what I faced by watching the highlights of the last Take The Leap at Twickenham Stadium here:

Part of the Commando Spirit Series of fundraising challenge events “Take The Leap” mirrors the training exercise normally only experienced by Royal Marines Commandos.

I did it!

On 4th October 2015 I was one of those to "Take The Leap" – more importantly and with your help I showed true grit and determination to raise significant funds for Royal Marines and their families in need.

They risk their all for us – will you show your support and continue to sponsor me today? Thank you.

If you would like more information on the challenge and how you can take part next year do visit www.commandospirit.com

What is Escape The Dunker? 

I have taken on the dual challenge of fundraising for our Royal Marines in need and facing Commando Spirit’s Escape The Dunker – the terrifying and formidable exercise all Royal Marines face as part of their arduous training to gain their green beret. So what will I be doing on the 12th November 2015? Well, I will be strapped into a fuselage and required to escape from a frighteningly realistic simulation of a helicopter at sea, in the dark, upside down, using the correct procedure.

Where do the funds go?

Commando Spirit’s Take The Leap and Escape The Dunker are raising funds for the work of the Royal Marines Charitable Trust Fund.

The Royal Marines Charitable Trust Fund has probably the widest purposes of almost any Service charity – helping the wounded and injured; providing support for those still serving by funding decompression activities, homecoming events and memorials; providing through-life support to those who have left the Corps or have lost loved ones. Quite simply, the Royal Marines Charitable Trust Fund will help when others cannot.

Do have a look at the video at:

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 and stretch them to achieve their fundraising commitments. Participants will be supported by our Royal Marines who will provide motivation and encouragement when the going gets tough.
