My story

In April 2007, Charlotte Eddington and Sarah Lucas will be embarking upon the toughest challenge of their lives - The Polar Race.

Defined as '...probably the world's toughest race…' the Polar Race is a 350 mile trek from the Canadian Mainland to the Magnetic North Pole. The challenge of getting to the North Pole is an all encompassing experience of survival and pushing ourselves to our limits and with temperatures as low as -40 degrees and the threat of hungry polar bears almost certain, we are unlikely to be disappointed!

To see more about the race, see www.polarrace.com or vist our own website, www.polargirls2007.co.uk.

Over the next 9 months we will be raising money for Cancer Research UK, a cause very close to our hearts. Cancer Research UK aims to conquer cancer through world-class research. It is the UK's leading cancer charity, with a dedicated team of 3,000 scientists and an annual scientific spend of around £213 million. Its funds are raised almost entirely through voluntary donations.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor us: Cancer Research will receive your money faster and, if you are a taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

All donations are gratefully received, so please sponsor us now.

Thank you for your support.

Charlotte and Sarah
