What an absolutely brilliant week for the Oarsome Team!
We moved out of our first operating base in the north-west and into our new Team Home on the south coast ready for future training events. Both teams have been massively supportive and brilliant to work with.
The team also undertook (and passed) 3 of the 5 mandatory courses required to undertake the challenge. They have already completed the Ocean Rowing Course. The outstanding course is a 1-day first aid course. A massive thanks to JSASTC for their help and co-operation in facilitating this bespoke requirement.
And, most importantly….with the help of Army Commercial, Army Corporate Governance and Regional Command Civ Sec, we are moving towards getting major sponsors on contract this side of Christmas. Stand by for sponsorship announcements in the next few weeks.
In short, a great week that leaves us dangerously close to pulling this off.
