Sir Ranulph Fiennes agrees to be our patron

Message of Suport from Sir Ranulph Fiennes – Patron of Tusen Takk. Tusen Takk has set itself a difficult target to cover 1000km in 20 days on skis in the wilds of central Norway.  I know from my own experience, that this will test their endurance, determination, teamwork and cheerfulness in the face of adversity, to the limit; all qualities that are instilled in Commandos that will be drawn on to complete the task.  To do this for three needy charities is commendable, yet I understand their desire to put themselves through this pain

The Baton will be handed over to the Tusen Takk team on Plymouth Hoe 7 Mar

The Baton Relay Run from Honiton to Plymouth Hoe If you have the time please read the Baton’s Message www.thebaton.co.uk On Sunday 7th March The Baton is to be run by the Baton Team, made up of  serving  and ex service men and women and three civilians from Honiton to Plymouth Hoe via CTCRM Lympstone, where the team will pay its respects at the Royal Marines Memorial Wall.
