The Ulysses Trust, a registered charity that supports adventurous activities and expeditions for the UK’s Volunteer Reserve and Cadet Forces, has received a generous donation of £10,000 from Cambridge Management Consulting, an international consulting firm. The donation was announced on Thursday July 10, 2025 and will directly support cadet units across the UK to deliver challenging and adventurous expeditions to army, air, and sea cadets.
The formal cheque presentation took place at Cambridge MC’s headquarters in London, where representatives from the consulting firm met with Polly Marsh, CEO of The Ulysses Trust, to celebrate the shared values of leadership, resilience, and public service that unite the two organizations.
“We are thrilled to be working with Cambridge Management Consulting on our shared goal of developing confident and resilient young people through challenge and adventure,” said Polly Marsh. “This generous donation will support as many cadets as possible to benefit from life-changing expeditions both in the UK and abroad.”
The Ulysses Trust provides financial assistance to help cadets and reservists undertake expeditions that develop essential life skills, such as teamwork, perseverance, and self-confidence. These experiences often have a lasting impact, inspiring participants to reach their full potential both personally and professionally.
Cambridge MC Founder and Chairman, Tim Passingham, expressed his pleasure at being able to support The Ulysses Trust. “This donation comes from proceeds generated by our work in the Falkland Islands,” he explained. “Given our passion for supporting children and young people, we wanted to contribute to a youth charity with connections to the Falklands. With The Ulysses Trust having been founded by Philip Neame MBE, who led D Company, 2 Para, in the Falklands War, it felt like the perfect charity for us to support and to begin building a deeper relationship with in the future.”
This generous support from Cambridge Management Consulting will help unlock even more opportunities for young people across the UK, enabling them to benefit from the transformational power of outdoor adventure and challenge. Without this financial support, many participants would not be able to afford to take part.
The Ulysses Trust was founded in 1992 by Philip Neame MBE and has since helped 44,000 individuals undertake life-changing journeys of personal development. For more information, visit www.ulyssestrust.co.uk.
