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 marked by a formal cheque presentation at Cambridge MC’s headquarters in London, where representatives from Cambridge Management Consulting 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.
The Ulysses Trust’s CEO, Polly Marsh, expressed her gratitude for the donation, saying, “The Ulysses Trust is thrilled to be working with Cambridge Management Consulting, who believe in our shared goal to develop confident and resilient young people through challenge and adventure — this generous donation will go to support as many cadets as possible to benefit from life changing expeditions in the UK and abroad.”
The Ulysses Trust provides financial assistance to help cadets and reservists to undertake expeditions that develop essential life skills, including teamwork, perseverance, and self-confidence. These experiences often have a lasting impact, inspiring participants to reach their full potential both personally and professionally.
Tim Passingham, Cambridge MC Founder and Chairman, shared his excitement about the donation, stating, “It’s an enormous pleasure for Cambridge Management Consulting to support The Ulysses Trust. This donation comes from proceeds generated by our work in the Falkland Islands. 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 of the participants would simply not be able to afford to take part.
The Ulysses Trust, founded in 1992 by Philip Neame MBE, has helped 44,000 individuals undertake life-changing journeys of personal development. Cambridge Management Consulting, founded in Cambridge, UK, in 2011, has grown to over 200 consultants working on projects in 22 countries. The firm’s unique approach of only employing senior executives with real industry or government experience has allowed them to have a highly positive impact on all the organizations they serve.
