Prince Harry will take part in a race to the South Pole with a team of wounded British servicemen and women, he announced today.

The 28-year-old will take on teams from the United States and the Commonwealth in the 208-mile (335km) Walking With The Wounded South Pole Allied Challenge in November and December this year.

He said at a press conference in London during which the teams were announced: "So, it just remains for me to say to Soldier On Canada, Soldiers To Summits from the US and Soldier On Australia - welcome to the party."

"As a member of the British team, I will have a brew ready for you when you join us at the Pole."
