Former soldier, James Redden, is going to walk from the 88th to the 90th (the north pole). The journey will cover a distance of around 225km and take up three weeks.The aim of the trip is to raise funds for the Diana Award, the Royal Signals Benevolent Fund and Walking with the Wounded charities. In addition I plan to run live sessions for students and other interested parties.
