The Arctic Angels will raise money for the RNLI
|
One member of the first ever all-women team to take part in the Polar Challenge has withdrawn.
The Arctic Angels are competing against 10 other teams to pull sleds unaided across Canada's North-west Territories to the Magnetic North Pole.
But Jocie Robertson, 30, from Bristol, is flying home on 22 April due to frostbite.
The race begins on Thursday. Clare Kavanagh, 30, and Philippa Thomson, 31, both from Poole, Dorset, will continue.
The team hopes to raise £10,000 for the RNLI during the trek.
