In 2013, I am planning to join Karen Darke and Andy Kirkpatrick on the ‘Pole of Possibility’ expedition to the South Pole.

The expedition is unique in that Karen is paralysed from the chest down and will ‘ski’ to the Pole using arm-power alone.

 

Click on the following links for more details on: the PoP expedition; for what I hope to gain from going to the Pole; and for the research that I propose to undertake while in Antarctica.
