Adventure Training and Sports

 

The motto ‘work hard, play hard’ is a philosophy much of the Royal Navy tries to adhere to whenever possible, and the QARNNS are no exception to this. QARNNS personnel of all ranks and rates have been involved in various adventure training and sporting activities over recent years.

These have included long distance Sailing journeys, activity holidays in Cornwall, walking expeditions, mountain climbing in Argentina and sporting tours to various international locations.

The QARNNS Trust Fund support these whenever possible.
