Prince Harry will spend 24 hours in a cold chamber in temperatures reaching minus 40C later this month as he continues his preparations for a charity trek to the South Pole.

The Prince, 28, and the four other members of the Walking with the Wounded team will endure simulated blizzard conditions as they practice their daily routine including putting up and taking down their tent, cooking meals and skiing for two hours at a time on exercise machines.

The practice session will take place on Sept 16 to 17 at Mira Ltd in Nuneaton, Warwickshire, which specialises in testing commercial and military vehicles under extreme conditions.

 In November the British team will race against a team from the US and a combined Canadian and Australian team in a 208-mile trek from the 87 degrees latitude line to the South Pole.
