Welcome to The Team Forces Podcast.  Join Heledd Kendrick as she talks to members of the armed forces who are doing extraordinary things, using challenge and adventure to help push their boundaries, both physically and mentally. This episode features former mountaineer and Army Reservist, Darren, who was paralysed in a near death climbing accident at the age of 26. Since then, Darren has become an active para-adventurer and expedition leader who has become a passionate champion of the phrase 'strength through adversity'.  During this chat with Heledd, you'll hear his story in full, with much focus on his record breaking and first expedition, which saw him lead a team of kayakers 1,400km from Land's End to John O'Groats.
