We met at a campsite last year when she was having a tough time halfway through the 35 mile Ten Tors event. We met again this year on the Friday before the start and I saw her cross the line after 45 miles #tentors#army#raf
In January, I fully ruptured my ACL on my ski instructor course. 5 weeks ago today, I had a reconstruction (by an Army surgeon and anaesthetist!) It’s been a really tough month, but feeling v grateful to have had such a good start to the recovery journey 💫
Feel very lucky to once again have the opportunity run the social media for Ten Tors.
We capture content from behind the scenes to try to show just what makes this event so magical. Follow us on insta to see @armytentors
Young people from across the South West headed out on Dartmoor this morning for start of the gruelling Ten Tors challenge. The annual event is run by the Army in the South West is usually attempted by 400 teams of six, with routes ranging between 35 and 55 miles. Up to 400 young people with additional needs were also taking part in a one-day event called the Jubilee Challenge. Many of the teams have been training for months in preparation.
@Mark1_1984 @ric_cole Haha yay this is good to hear, thanks Mark! Just the Instagram /social media by us which is a team of three who don’t work for the HQ, but are just passionate about sharing the magic of this incred weekend. Glad it’s working!
@ric_cole Thanks Ric, so nice to meet you. So glad you like the Instagram, we’re pretty proud of what we manage to achieve, but the participants make it easy and I definitely have the best job at the event.
@brianwoodcock1 So glad it helps you out on the Tors too! I’ll come up as a tor party volunteer in the future whenever they don’t want me to do the Instagram. Sounds like you had a very successful weekend!
🚘🛵🏍️A review on SLCs has expanded the offer to include all categories of UK driving licences - will cover lessons, online learning packages, theory and practical tests, advanced driver training, and CBT - as long as it benefits your job/career

@MC6117 They won’t subsidise wine tasting! This doesn’t get approved (it did used to for wines members of messes but this has stopped in recent years). It will only subsidise a driving licence if it is the first licence you get (so unlikely for anyone really tbf)
Here is your yearly reminder to begin to think about using your SLCs before the 2024/2025 allocation is wasted!
Here’s a link to a blog post which explains how to use them, the policy and some examples on what courses you could complete 🤩
