Frome teenager prepares for North Pole challenge
A teenager from Somerset is in training for the biggest challenge of his life - skiing to the North Pole.
Chris Brown, 18, from Frome, is part of the first ever Scout expedition to the pole.
He will have to cover 200km (120 miles) in temperatures as low as minus 40 degrees Celsius.
But one of the biggest hurdles he has to overcome is raising the £150,000 needed to go on the trip in the first place.
