Every year, the UKs  Armed Forces Para-Snowsport Team (AFPST) plays a powerful role in the recovery of injured and sick serving personnel and Veterans. This sporting activity re builds their self confidence and competitive spirit, through snowsport activities, which give them the opportunity to build a new identity as a winter sports competitor.

Leonardo is now in its tenth year of support AFPST, working to make a lasting contribution to the freedom, rehabilitation and transformation of the wounded, or sick military personnel and veterans. In July 2019 Leonardo is organising the Ride of Steel event to raise money for this worthwhile cause. The Ride of Steel will see staff from Leonardo's UK sites cycle from their site to converge in Sheffield, ahead of the UK Invictus Trails Opening Ceremony on Monday 22nd July.

A team of 8 riders will cycle over 200 miles to Sheffield in 5 days. The final day will see all the Ride of Steel participants ride en masse to the Sheffield Arena ahead of the UK Invictus Opening Trails Ceremony.
