Access Granted: First Steps Aboard

Join us for Episode 6 of our virtual event series, Access Granted: First Steps Aboard, where we step inside one of the Royal Navy’s most powerful warships, HMS Prince of Wales.

This exciting finale in the Access Granted series follows a Royal Navy trainee taking their first deployment at sea, revealing what life is really like onboard a floating city. From meeting the crew and learning the ropes to living and working on a mission-ready ship, this episode shows how everything learned in training is put into action on the ocean.

See what happens from the moment you walk up the gangway, the daily routines, duties, challenges and camaraderie that make ship life extraordinary. Through real stories from the crew, you’ll witness how teamwork, leadership and technical skills come together to keep one of the Royal Navy’s flagship aircraft carriers operating around the world.
