Aaron is a serving Officer of Her Majesty’s Royal Marines and the youngest member of the SC14 Channel relay challenge team. Humble yet dynamic, Aaron always seeks to inject humour in times of adversity, which will hopefully prove useful midway across the English Channel.

An ambassador for mental health awareness, Aaron has experienced the impact of PTSD first hand, personally and amongst work colleagues, both military and civilian. As such he is fiercely proud to be part of this year’s challenge, raising awareness and support for PTSD and offering his narrative to anyone who will listen. 

A keen sportsperson, no challenge is too tough, too ambitious or too outlandish, especially when supported by his wife Rebecca and their disobedient cocker spaniel. SC14 combines the best of Aaron’s interests whilst simultaneously bringing out the best of his abilities and personality.
