Tomorrow I’m gonna be completing a marathon, and I’m so nervous! If you can spare anything at all, or share my donation page, it’d be massively appreciated 💙 justgiving.com/page/charlie-…

Today, we hosted the #STEM team from HMS EXCELLENT! They inspired our future STEM Ambassadors to join their mission.
These ambassadors utilise innovative displays to spark curiosity, encouraging students to explore the limitless possibilities of engineering and the @RoyalNavy.

As the media seem to have forgotten him already, an update on the army colonel attacked in Chatham last week. Like or RT if you wish him well.
A uniformed soldier stabbed multiple times near an Army barracks remains in a serious condition a week after the attack buff.ly/3WpdDLm

#OnThisDay 1816 boats from HMS BANN captured the Spanish Slaver Rosa at the mouth of the Kerefe River, Sierra Leone freeing 276 slaves. Bann was part of the @RoyalNavy West Africa Squadron which during its existence freed over 150,000 African Slaves bound for the Americas.

'Letters Home' is a short film which tells the story of Tom, a sailor from the Royal Navy 63rd Division, writing his letter home.
It’s a personal account on the front line, where a letter home is sent in case the imaginable happens.

I’ve completed the #CoralSwim! 🪸
123 km. 16 days. 2 continents. 1 message:
Coral reefs are vital, spectacular ecosystems that support a quarter of ocean life. Climate change is destroying them.
At #COP27 we need urgent action to prevent any further loss.
Please share.

How we treat or speak of those fleeing violent conflict, famine or persecution is a barometer of the health of our public and political life. People are not chess pieces. A laissez-faire attitude to their suffering is an offence against justice, and diminishes our own humanity.

Looking forward to episode 3 of @channel5_tv's #Warship programme tonight; the one where @HMSNORT's towed array and a Russian sub become closely acquainted👀
Here are my thoughts after the first two episodes, some in response to the usual 'noise' when RN documentaries air:

The sun has set here at HMNB Portsmouth after a busy week which saw @HMSDragon @HMSDefender @hmsdiamond all meet up off the South coast to test their equipment and personnel. @HMSDuncan is the fourth sister at sea and working with @NATO forces in the Black Sea. #FridayFeeling
