Two traditionally rigged tall ships have arrived at the Barbican Landing Stage as part of a 12-week, 2,000- nautical-mile, ‘Full Circle Expedition’ around the UK.
The Spirit of Falmouth and the Pellew recently left Port Penennis Marina in Falmouth, and the expedition is coordinated by the veteran charity Turn to Starboard in partnership with the Invictus Games Birmingham 2027.
The Full Circle tour will travel anticlockwise around the UK, visiting 22 ports in England, Scotland, Ireland, and Wales before returning to Falmouth on June 11th this year.
Wounded, injured and sick veterans and serving personnel will be flying the Invictus Games flag around the UK, generating public interest, raising donations, and supporting the veterans’ community.
The Invictus Games were founded by Prince Harry in 2014 for wounded, injured, and sick military personnel.
