About C Group

Who we are

The C Group is made up of a small nucleus of Royal Marines and a rapidly expanding membership of businessmen and women, drawn initially from the South West but now including increasing numbers from throughout the UK.   Membership is by subscription and from the original 15 founders, the C Group now comprises over 50 businessmen and women, ensuring that our support programme is well underway.

The C Group had its inception in 2007 and was the brain-child of Major General Andy Salmon, the then Commandant of the Commando Training Centre Royal Marines.  Through his daily contacts with the local East Devon community, he learned that there were many outside the military who wanted to become actively involved in supporting the Royal Marines who lived and worked in their community.

It is our aim to see The C Group network expand over time to cover all areas in which Royal Marines serve and live.

What we do and where we are going

Headley Rehabilitation CentreOur mission is to generate targeted support for the Royal Marines from within the business community and to channel that support to wherever the need is greatest.  In light of current operations, the focus of our attention is with the injured and their families, some of whom will need our input, to varying degrees, for the rest of their lives.

 

The C Group's aims can be summarised as follows:-

  • To raise awareness and understanding of the Royal Marines and the current issues facing them.
  • To support the on-going rehabilitation and re-integration of injured Royal Marines, whether this is within the Corps or in a new direction in a civilian career.
  • To provide facilities and opportunities to support the welfare and personal development of serving and former Royal Marines as the need arises.
