Description

"There are some things women don't do. They don't become pope or president - or go down to the Antarctic." So said polar explorer Harry Darlington, who had clearly never met Felicity Aston.

The 33-year-old explorer will share her experiences as the first woman in the world to ski solo across Antarctica to the South Pole along a route never skied before. She is no stranger to the Antarctic and spent three years living and working as a meteorologist there before breaking more records by leading a women-only team to the South Pole.

This evening is organised by The Rotary Club of Chestfield in aid of SERV, a charity transporting life-saving blood and supplies for the NHS for free.
