EUROTAXGLASS Group chief executive Kevin Gaskell is attempting to walk to the North Pole in memory of his sister who died of leukaemia.

Gaskell will attempt the walk in April. He and his team will haul 100kg sledges carrying equipment for the three-week journey in temperatures as low as -50C.

All money raised from the trip will go to Jayne’s Gift Fund, to help fight leukaemia.
