Welcome to the Team Repulse Polar Challenge website. This site consists of three main areas:
From the first discovery of the North Magnetic Pole under Royal Navy Commander James Clarke Ross in 1831 to the present day, the history of Arctic exploration and the British Armed Forces have enjoyed a remarkable connection.
It is therefore fitting that proceeds from this expedition will be donated to The Royal British Legion, to help enable us to continue our important work in support of the Armed Forces past and present, and their families.
The Royal British Legion wishes Team Repulse the best of luck in this remarkable race.
- Lt Gen Sir John Kiszely KCB MC
President of The Royal British Legion
