RMA- The Royal Marines Charity had a fantastic time at this year's Gone Wild Festival in Devon. It was a great opportunity for us to raise awareness about the support we provide in the RM community. We would like to say a massive thank you to all who stopped by our stand and helped us raise generous donations and achieve our RM360 Challenge, to clock up enough miles to travel round the UK. Well done, and thank you to all who were involved. #RMfamily

Later this week on Friday 23rd August, two hoofin’ Royal Marines are taking on an immense challenge: to run from Helensburgh, Scotland, to the Commando Memorial at Spean Bridge, with a detour up Ben Nevis, totalling 104 miles and a 1,345-meter ascent over a 30-hour period. They will be completing this challenge in support their friend, Ben, who suffered a life-changing injury and is still undergoing treatment at the Defence Medical Rehabilitation Centre. Despite his adversities, Ben has still shown a fantastic mindset, and embodied the Commando spirit by remaining positive with an amazing sense of humour. Seeing the mindset of their friend and those who reside in the rehabilitation centre with him, the lads said they were inspired to "take on a challenge fitting for these men and women. A test of great mental and physical strength." They are raising funds for the Defence Medical Rehabilitation Centre (DMRC) and RMA- The Royal Marines Charity.

RMA- The Royal Marines Charity have been awarded a grant under the latest round of funding from the Office for Veterans' Affairs OVA Career Development Programme (CDP) through Armed Forces Covenant Fund Trust to support Early Service Leavers once they transition. The funding awarded is £48,000 over 2 years. Zoe Darnbrough, Head of the Employment and Education Team will have oversight for the 2-year project. She commented, “We are delighted to receive this funding from The OVA and Armed Forces Covenant Fund Trust. The project seeks to help Early Service Leavers transition. Many are medically discharged, often vulnerable, from challenging and disadvantaged backgrounds. This bespoke support will ensure the best possible outcomes from transition, whilst also separately identifying training and qualifications required to secure meaningful and successful future career prospects.” Tom Wilson, Director of Development, also said, “ The OVA and Armed Forces Covenant Trust Fund have recognised the unique support that RMA-The Royal Marines Charity provide. Our project seeks to bolster the transitioning process for vulnerable ESLs (Early Service Leavers) who have either been medically or administratively discharged during the course of their training. We are sincerely grateful for this grant funding from OVA and AFCFT, as it will help to support as many as 600 beneficiaries over 2-years.” #RMfamily
