trace their origins back to 1664, Today, the Royal Marines are evolving to produce the UK's 'Future Commando Force' consisting of five task grouped Commando Units as well as specialist intelligence and support units approximately 6000 personnel. Royal Marines have served in every British Campaign since WWII. During the last decade the level of Royal Marines operational deployment has been extraordinary! They currently provide approximately 46% of UK Special Forces. The result is a disproportionate number of killed and wounded. For many of the wounded, physical or mental injury will remain with them to the end of their lives.

Based from centres in; Scotland, London, Merseyside and Bristol, the RMR provides fully training part-time Commandos to support regular operations. Reservists manage their civilian occupations alongside their Royal Marines careers, complete the same Commando course to the same demanding standards. Alternatively, former regular Royal Marines who choose to adjust their 'life priorities' or, on completion of a fixed term of service, may opt to transfer to reserve serve. Reservists play an active role in global operations, doing the same job as your regular counterparts, as part of the most elite amphibious fighting force in the world

Royal Marines Association - The Royal Marines Charity

​

On 1st April 2019, the Royal Marines Association and The Royal Marines Charity officially merged to become the single, central pillar of support to the Royal Marines Family. It embraces and embodies the Corps’ family; regular and reserve Royal Marines past and present, as well as their dependants. The membership grows continually to include all elements of the Royal Marines. It is free to join and is now open to Associates and 'Supporters' who wish to join.

​

The newly formed single agency, known as RMA - The Royal Marines Charity, provides flexible response to support Royal Marines and their families, as well as Veterans throughout their lives. To continue and improve this support is a serious challenge. But meeting a ‘challenge’ is what Royal Marines do best
