In December of this year I will be embarking on a ski trek to the South Pole, covering well over 100 miles in the inhospitable climate of Antarctica; temperatures as low as -40˚C at an altitude of over 3,000m above sea level. The trek marks three anniversaries, of varying significance, that have fallen during 2012 – UNITE’s 21 birthday, my own 40 birthday and the centenary of Scott reaching the South Pole. I have covered the full cost of the expedition personally and will be raising money for Penny Brohn Cancer Care, a Bristol-based charity that provides physical, emotional and spiritual support to people living with cancer.
I would like to thank KPMG as my primary supporter of this expedition.
