Get ready to tackle challenges, build teamwork, and unleash your leadership potential at the Leadership Challenge Day Event

Leadership Challenge Day Event

The Army in the South East Challenge Day provides an opportunity to take part in a series of team challenges delivered by the Army which will allow you to develop teamwork and leadership skills and learn about yourself whilst taking part in fun, interactive activities.

For those Aged 18+

Participants will work as part of a team to solve a range of mental and physical challenges. You will learn more about the Army and its people and it will provide an insight into how we get the best out of our people. You will have the opportunity to develop leadership and teamwork skills and consider how you can build confidence, resilience and courage in yourself and others. You will learn skills and techniques that can be taken back and applied in your own workplace whilst also gaining an insight into the variety of roles carried out by the Army.

The event is not strenuous, anyone with a reasonable level of fitness can participate, you just need to be willing to ‘have a go’. It's also not a competition, it's about you and your team learning to be the best they can be. The event takes place outdoors and the facilities are functional but basic. The event is not weather dependent therefore participants should prepare accordingly.
