Driven to Extremes is an organisation that supports military veterans suffering from PTSD by taking them on challenging vehicle adventures to aid their recovery.

Where some activities such as Polar trekking or Atlantic rowing can allow too much thinking time, vehicle expeditions can cross continents in a matter of days. The relentless pace ensures that the veterans are overwhelmed with new and rapidly changing experiences, which helps push horrific memories to the back of their minds.

Operating in remote and challenging environments, having to work as valued members of a close - knit team and the opportunities for leadership, builds comradeship, increases self - esteem and brings back their confidence.
