My Mission Statement
Posted in Articles, Education 22 days ago
My aim is simple. It is to inspire and educate children globally about world climate change and to do so through my interactive expeditions and related school outreach work. My focus is primarily, but not exclusively, on the arctic regions, its Inuit people, its animals and landscape.

“Antony has, though, what might prove to be a trump card. He is too nice a guy to point it out, but one unique selling point is that he isn’t a Pen or a Ranulph. He’s an ordinary bloke from Plymouth who the rest of us, young and old, can identify with.”
Snowy Dartmoor Offers Great Training
Posted in Expedition, Media 26 days ago
January has offered a fantastic training opportunity due to all the snow and ice we have received. I have been out on the moor when ever I have been able to and wanted to share with you some of my training photographs and video of a beautiful Dartmoor covered in snow. A big thank you for Plymouth Art College supplying me with a video camcorder to help capture these moments.

In February 2010, I will embark on my greatest expedition to date: to ski to the Geographic North Pole and be one of the few Britons ever to have done so.

Training For The North Pole
Posted in Equipment, Expedition 71 days ago
Every other day I head out onto Dartmoor with my car full of tires, no matter what the weather. The tires I have rigged to simulate the weight of my sledge and have attached to my harness. These I pull for between 3 – 5 hours along land rover tracks across the moor. This is great training as it really helps develop the muscle groups needed whilst on expedition.
