Hugo Mitchell-Heggs on HMS Oardacious
About this episode
In January 2020, four Royal Navy Submariners became the first-ever Royal Navy team and the fastest military team in history to row any ocean. The team spent 37 days, 6 hours and 40 minutes battling across the North Atlantic to reach Nelsons Dockyard, Antigua. Their endeavours raised more than £100k for project HMS Oardacious which supports Mental Health and Wellbeing in the Submarine community.
In this episode of Cool Conversations, Kenton talks to one of the 4 members of that Royal Navy crew, Hugo Mitchell-Heggs.
Hugo describes himself as "An enthusiastic individual constantly striving for excellence in all facets of both professional and personal life." We say, "he's that and so much more".
