The Invictus Games presented by Jaguar Land Rover

The Invictus Games presented by Jaguar Land Rover is an international sporting competition for wounded, injured and sick Service personnel.

The vision for the Invictus Games is to harness the power of sport to inspire recovery, support rehabilitation and generate a wider understanding and respect of those who serve their country.

‘Invictus’ means ‘unconquered’. It embodies the fighting spirit of the wounded, injured and sick Service personnel what these tenacious men and women can achieve post injury. The Invictus Games will celebrate this through sporting achievement that recognises the sacrifice they, and others, have made.


The Invictus Games is an initiative of the Royal Foundation of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and HRH Prince Harry, in partnership with the Ministry of Defence. The event is being organised by a specially formed committee supported by key members of the delivery team from the London 2012 Paralympic Games. Prince Harry was inspired to bring the Invictus Games to London after visiting the US Warrior Games in 2013. The Prince sees the Games as an important part of a broader legacy of support, through a combination of on-going care, training and employment opportunities, to the well-being of those men and women who have served their country.


Jaguar Land Rover is immensely proud to be presenting partner of the Invictus Games, having been inspired by the passion with which Prince Harry has championed this visionary idea, to celebrate the commitment an achievements of wounded, injured and sick Service personnel. Jaguar Land Rover will explore opportunities with the Royal Foundation and Ministry of Defence to create innovative ways to enhance the valuable role of veterans as skilled employees, as a way of creating a lasting legacy for the Games. There will also be a driving challenge as part of the schedule of events for the participants, organised by Jaguar Land Rover. Jaguar Land Rover is the UK’s largest premium automotive manufacturing business, built around two iconic British car brands; Land Rover, the world’s leading manufacturer of premium all-wheel-drive vehicles, and Jaguar, one of the world’s premier luxury sports saloon and sports car marques. All of Jaguar Land Rover’s vehicles are engineered and designed in Britain and while Jaguar Land Rover has ambitious plans for global growth, the heart of the business remains in the UK. Jaguar Land Rover’s investment state-of-the-art production, research and development facilities, along with ongoing support of local communities and encouragement to get young people to seek jobs in engineering, has led to Jaguar Land Rover winning the Responsible Business of the Year Award 2013.
