Our fabulous Lorna Bye raised over £1100 from her Family Day that she organised last weekend…

Lorna Bye, mother of two, from Tongham, Surrey, is taking part in the Arctic Wilderness Experience in March next year, and has got some great fundraising plans…

A journey in freezing conditions pulled along by a pack of dogs whilst enjoying the most beautiful untouched scenery that I have encountered; it makes you feel a sense of fragility and vulnerability and yet it has been the most exhilarating experience. The trust between man and beast and ultimately the relations built within the group will always be fondly remembered. Redventure has given me the confidence to seek out my next adventure and I would recommend this trip to anybody !

19-25 March 2010 – Cost £3350 (including Deposit of £250)

Imagine being surrounded by a frozen landscape 200 miles north of the Arctic Circle. You’re on the back of a sled being pulled by Alaskan Huskies and all you can hear is the panting of the dogs and the crunching of the snow under the sled’s runners. As you travel, the landscape changes from the open and windswept plains of ice and snow to scented coniferous forests.
