For over forty years, Terra Nova gear has been to the places that test it hardest — first ascents in the Karakoram, crossings of the Patagonian ice cap, four months on Ellesmere Island, the summit of Everest and back. Our archive isn’t marketing. It’s a record of what our tents, shelters and clothing have actually survived, written by the people who were there.
If you’re planning something ambitious, we’d like to hear about it.
We support a small number of expeditions each year, and we’re honest about what earns our backing. The trips we get behind tend to share a few things: a clear, specific objective rather than a general adventure; a team with real experience and a track record we can look up; and a plan for telling the story afterwards
The form below is how we’d like to hear from you. It takes a little time to fill in properly, and that’s deliberate; the detail you give us is exactly what we use to decide. Please send everything through the form rather than by separate email; it keeps every application in one place and gives us a fair read.
We review applications in batches, so it may be a while before you hear back, and we’re only able to follow up with the expeditions we can support. If that’s yours, we’ll be in touch.
Four decades of expeditions, and every one a real trip with a real team behind it. Browse the archive to see the kind of adventures we get behind and the stories that come back.
