Multiple reports indicate that Prince Harry undertook an expedition to the North Pole in 2011 to raise money for charity. The team, composed of injured veterans, set a world record for the first unsupported team to reach the North Pole, according to major media sources. They completed a 200-mile challenge in 13 days, battling temperatures as low as minus 50 degrees Celsius.
The expedition raised funds for Walking With The Wounded charity. Prince Harry reunited with members of the original expedition team on a video call for the 15-year anniversary. During the call, Prince Harry said he was honoured to join the expedition and that it served as a powerful reminder of the tenacity and courage of those who serve.
He added that he remains immensely proud of what the team accomplished and that the expedition helped change public perception and encouraged veterans to speak up. The exact amount raised and the current status of the veterans involved have not been disclosed.
