The Holdfast Challenge 2026

The fundraiser includes arduous and mentally challenging activities such as multiple water events, obstacle courses and events requiring teamwork and endurance. Myself and a team of 6 will all be participating in this fundraiser against other troops and regiments service wide.

For the second consecutive year, 521 Squadron, 11 EOD&S Regiment is proud to be raising funds for The Felix Fund — a charity dedicated to supporting the Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) community across the Army, Royal Navy, and Police.

This is the second year of raising funds for the Felix Fund, a brilliant cause that supports the EOD community, Army-Navy and the Police. From service members and family welfare to injury support. The Felix cat is a well known icon across the community. British Army Bomb Disposal personnel respond on average to 2,500 call outs a year, held at a high ureadiness 24/7.
