Insurers sponsors David Newman’s charity arctic trek

Carole Nash boss David Newman is heading for the Arctic for final preparations for his charity walk to the north pole according to his latest blog entry.

He celebrated with a night out at the Belowzero ice bar in London where everything is made out of ice and the temperature is -5C. Where he’s going it will be much colder.

Corproate donations have included David McMillan at Aviva, Carl O'Sullivan of Arthur Cox Solicitors and Axa Assistance's Jesus Carmona.

Boorman tweets

Actor turned adventure biker Charley Boorman has plugged Newman’s ride via Twitter and his Facebook page, as he is a big supporter of Riders for Health.

“My next update will be from deep inside the Arctic Circle where I'll be acclimatising and training ready for this amazing adventure,” Newman says.
