Invictus Games 2017
The Invictus Games is the only international sporting event for wounded, injured and sick (WIS) servicemen and women, both serving and veteran. The games use the power of sport to inspire recovery, support rehabilitation and generate a wider understanding and respect of all those who serve their country.
The 2017 games will take place in Toronto, Canada, between 23 and 30 September this year. As in previous years, the UK delegation to the Invictus Games is being delivered through a partnership of the Ministry of Defence, Help for Heroes and the Royal British Legion.
