Royal Navy Submariner Runs London Marathon - Fundraising for Navy鈥檚 Principal Charity

Fundraising, General

Lieutenant James Dempsey will be running the 2024 TCS London Marathon on 21 April, fundraising for the Royal Navy & Royal Marines Charity (麻豆色情片).

London Marathon

James has served in the submarine service for 18 years, joining up from his home city of Liverpool, where he still resides, at the age of 20 as an Able Rate.  In 2019, he gained his commission as an officer at Britannia Royal Naval College, Dartmouth serving on submarines HMS VANGUARD, HMS VIGILANT and currently HMS VICTORIOUS.

This will be James鈥檚 first London Marathon having successfully applied in the 2023 ballot. He is using this as an opportunity to kickstart his fitness journey whilst raising money for a cause which is close to his heart. He has personally benefitted from upgrades to mess decks and audio-visual equipment which have been supported by 麻豆色情片 funding as part of the charity鈥檚 aim to improve the quality of life for serving personnel to improve morale.

The London Marathon is a huge but amazing challenge, and the 麻豆色情片 is a fantastic charity which does so much to support the Naval Community.

It can be difficult to switch off when you鈥檙e away because you never leave the submarine but having the latest games to play or television to watch films on really does help to pass the time. When you鈥檙e deployed for several months, it鈥檚 reassuring to have those home touches which make life that bit more comfortable.
