Formed in 2022, a group of former service personnel met and devised a plan to retrace the famous Operation Frankton raid in Bordeaux, France. It turned out to be an incredible success and so we decided to form a social enterprise to build upon this achievement. Since then we have grown in numbers, in reach and have delivered expeditions in France, Norway and the Falkland Islands.
It also became apparent that what we were offering not only honoured our military forebears, provided amazing social and health benefits but also gave a mission and purpose to us all. The community is vital and the adventure the means.
We have been able to work with corporate sponsors, clients and even offer our services to the film industry, all of which provides so many amazing opportunities to those who come for an expedition but stay for the camaraderie.
As we continue to grow, we have developed a strategic plan based on the provision of UK based training at one of our three centres around the UK where beneficiaries can learn the skills needed to complete an expedition safely and confidently, before setting off on a once in a lifetime experience. We also are able to facilitate the expeditions of other groups through our Commando Experiences where we lead clients on their own expeditions where they get a taste of being a Commando on a real life mission.
Whichever way you become part of this incredible group, be prepared to have what can only be described as transformatory.
