North Devon Hospice’s infamous Mission:Unbreakable is back for 2023 and promises to be bigger and better than ever with the addition of several brand-new obstacles. Events Manager Lisa asks, are you ready to take on the challenge?

Comrades, I’m delighted to share the news you’ve all been waiting for: Mission:Unbreakable is back for 2023! And what a mission we have in store for you this year…

For almost 13 years, Mission:Unbreakable has been pushing participants to their limits through a unique assault course set over 10km of hilly countryside on the edge of Exmoor. Designed with the help of hardy commandos from the 24 Commando Royal Engineer Regiment based at RMB Chivenor, this military-style event is not for the faint-hearted and one that will put you through your paces every single time. But from first-hand experience, I can confirm that the feeling of elation when you cross that finish line, knowing you’ve helped hundreds of people get the care they deserve in their very last moments, is like no other.

If you’re a North Devon resident, you’ll have likely taken part in this iconic fundraising event before or at the very least, heard about what a gruelling challenge this is for those who are brave enough. But if you think you know Mission:Unbreakable, think again.

This year, we’ve switched things up and with the help of the commandos, will be pushing your endurance levels even further with the addition of several brand-new obstacles to tackle along the course. This means that Mission:Unbreakable 2023 will be bigger and better than ever before – bigger course, tougher challenge. But we know that whatever it takes, you’ll step up to the plate and show us what it means to be an ‘unbreakable’ in the name of hospice care.

Despite these new challenges, this flagship event for North Devon Hospice remains one that everyone can take part in, no matter your shape, size, or fitness level. For me, one of the best things about Mission:Unbreakable is seeing the encouragement and support that is shared between participants on the day. Whether you’re flying solo or taking part with a team, there’s never any shortage of comradery and the sense of shared achievement is what makes this event so special.

As the demand for our care continues to rise, the effects of your fundraising through Mission:Unbreakable will be felt by more than 3,000 patients and families across North Devon, especially those receiving hospice care at home.
This is because, for most people facing a life-limiting illness, home is where they want to be at the end of their life, surrounded by familiarity and comfort. By taking part in Mission:Unbreakable, you can help make this possible by ditching your comfort zone to keep hospice patients comfortable at home.
