This December I leave for the expedition of a lifetime in Antarctica. I'll be skiing solo, unsupported and unassisted from the coastline of Antarctica to the South Pole. A distance of 750 miles, dragging all my food and equipment behind me in a sled, expected to take around 40 days to completed. I'm fundraising for both BBC Children in Need and Women In Sport UK. 

You can follow my journey live at www.jennydavis.co.uk where I'll also be posting a daily blog from the ice. 

As a grant maker, BBC Children in Need support disadvantaged children and young people all across the UK. Women in Sport encourage girls and women in the UK to experience the transformational lifelong rewards of sport.

With our support, they are able to change millions of young lives across England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland every single year.
