Story
Hi I'm Tom Warburton, In November 2020, I am attempting to become the youngest person to walk to the South Pole solo. This expedition hopes to raise awareness of the environment to young people across the world. Charity is also a large driver behind the attempt. with the expedition raising money for three great charities Help for Heroes, Hire a Hero and Great Ormond Street. (Please not this page is a crowdfunder to help support some of the expedition's training, not for donating to charity. The charities donation page is in the link below)
Funding an expedition to the South Pole can be one of the largest barriers to an attempt. As part of this we’re launching our “buy a mile”. This will allow you to help me achieve my dream and raise money for charity and awareness of the environment for future generations. For the price of a pint you can own a mile on this expedition. It may be a solo attempt but it’s a community effort. You have the opportunity to be part of this amazing journey.

6 months agoHi everyone! Thank you for all your support. It’s been a busy week preparing for breaking the record. Although the snow has gone in my core training ground in Norway, training continues back at home. Last Monday I practiced again tyre pulling, I’m slowly adding on more weight to each tyre. The rest of the week was spent planning and raising further funding for the expedition. A big old task! The team are just in the preliminarily stages of planning for a solo crossing of Greenland so are very busy with all of that! Tom W
