Two tickets to The Sovereign’s Parade at the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst on Friday 11th December 2026. The parade showcases the newest intake of Officer Cadet’s training, marking their commissioning into the British Army.
Held three times a year on the iconic parade square before the historic Old College, it is a spectacle of precision drill, immaculate ceremonial dress, and deep tradition, attended by family, friends, and dignitaries, often including the Sovereign or a senior Royal.
The event honours the Academy’s highest-achieving cadets with awards such as the Sword of Honour and the Queen’s Medal, and concludes with an emotional march past, symbolising the end of training and the beginning of a lifetime of service.

Signed copy of Conquering Dreams.
In 2010, while serving with the Royal Gurkha Rifles in Afghanistan, Hari’s life changed forever when he stepped on an Improvised Explosive Device (IED). The blast resulted in the loss of both of his legs above the knee.
In Conquering Dreams, Hari opens up about the devastating initial impact of his injuries, his struggle with severe mental health challenges, and the pivotal moments that helped him rebuild his life. Driven by an unyielding Gurkha spirit and a determination to redefine what is possible for double above-the-knee amputees, Hari set his sights on the highest peak on Earth: Mount Everest.
In May 2023, Hari made history by becoming the first double above-the-knee amputee to summit Everest, proving to the world that disability is no barrier to achieving extraordinary dreams.
Conquering Dreams will be released on 27 August 2026 and is available to pre-order now online. Order your copy today to discover an unforgettable story of courage, perseverance, and the invincible human spirit.

When bidding on an auction item, if you enter more than the minimum increment for an item then your bid will be used for proxy bidding. This is how it works:
1. You enter the absolute maximum that you are willing to bid for an item.
2. jumblebee places a bid on your behalf, using the minimum amount required to make you the highest bidder, i.e. current bid price plus bid increment OR the reserve price, if there is one and it can be covered by your proxy bid.
3. jumblebee continues to bid on your behalf, whenever you are outbid by another member's bid, until your maximum bid is exceeded or the auction is won.
4. jumblebee will notify you by email if your maximum bid is outbid by another member and provided the auction is still running, you will then have a chance to enter a new maximum bid if you wish.
For example:
The current bid on an auction item is £100. The minimum increment is £10. You enter a bid of £150 (your maximum bid).
Using your bid, but increasing only by the minimum increment, jumblebee sets the current bid to £110.
Another person bids £130 but they are immediately outbid by jumblebee bidding on your behalf and the current bid goes up to £140.
The auction finishes and you have won the auction item at a price of £140.
