Story

Take The Leap is no ordinary abseil and I will be abseiling off the very top of the iconic 150ft high Titan Crane in Glasgow with the Royal Marines!

You can see more of what I will be facing 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.

On 4th October 2015 I am determined to be one of those that Take The Leap – more importantly and with your help I intend to show 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 sponsor me today? Thank you.

If you would like more information on the challenge and how you can join me do visit www.commandospirit.com

Where do the funds go?

Commando Spirit’s Take The Leap is 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.

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. If you have what it takes - you can do this and if you would like to please contact me or email info@commandospirit.com

What is Take The Leap?

Take the Leap is a series of abseils offered by Commando Spirit that give civilian participants the chance to take on Royal Marines fast rope abseil training – and put their new skill into practice by abseiling from iconic locations. To date the Take The Leap series has included the roof of the listed St Pancras station, Twickenham rugby ground, The Shard and Finneston Crane in Glasgow.
