Helping extraordinary challenges create a lasting impact

Lee Spencer’s endurance challenges have never been about personal achievement alone.

From ocean crossings to epic feats of endurance, each challenge has carried a bigger purpose: to test what is possible, to challenge perceptions of disability, and to raise vital awareness and funds for the Royal Marines family.

Over the years, Lee has been fortunate to receive generous support from sponsors, partners, businesses, friends, and members of the public who believed in the mission behind the challenge. Their backing helped make the expeditions possible. Their generosity helped the impact go further.

And, in many cases, the funds raised through Lee’s challenges have supported RMA – The Royal Marines Charity, the charity that provides lifelong support to serving and former Royal Marines, their families, and those connected to the Corps.

Every major challenge needs people behind it

Lee is enormously grateful to the organisations and individuals who have helped fund, equip, promote, and support his expeditions over the years. From title sponsors Edgar Brothers and technical partners to local businesses and personal donors, each contribution has played a part in helping Lee take on challenges that inspire others and support a cause close to his heart.

Supporting the Royal Marines Family

Lee served in the Royal Marines for more than 20 years. The Corps shaped his values, his resilience, and his belief in what ordinary people can achieve when they commit fully to something bigger than themselves.

That connection remains central to his fundraising.

While Lee’s major challenges have often had dedicated fundraising pages, many people ask how they can support the cause outside of a live expedition or campaign.

The simplest way is to make a voluntary donation directly to RMA – The Royal Marines Charity.

Your donation helps the charity provide support, advice, friendship, and practical assistance to the Royal Marines family — including serving personnel, veterans, families, and those who need help during difficult times.

There is no current challenge you need to sponsor. No finish line to wait for. No ocean crossing to track.

Just a direct opportunity to support a charity that means a great deal to Lee and to the wider Royal Marines community.

A Personal Note From Lee

“The Royal Marines gave me the foundation for so much of my life — my discipline, my resilience, my sense of humour when things get difficult, and my belief that we are capable of more than we think.

My challenges have always been personal, but they have never just been about me. They have been about showing what is possible and giving something back to the Corps family that has meant so much to me.

To every sponsor, supporter, donor, and person who has backed one of my challenges: thank you. You helped make those journeys possible.

And to anyone choosing to support RMA – The Royal Marines Charity now, outside of a challenge or expedition, thank you. Your support really does matter.”
