Inspiring Arctic Adventure for Hilary Meredith Solicitors Ambassador Brian Wood

Hilary Meredith-Beckham and her husband Ted attended the premiere of The Arctic Adventure, featuring the firm’s Ambassador Brian Wood (MC), in London last night.

The film was made during Brian’s Project Fire and Ice fundraising adventure for SSAFA, the Armed Forces charity.

Four famous veterans – Brian, Karl Hinet, Jason "Foxy" Fox and Aldo Kane – took part in a 500-kilometre Arctic Ultra, through the snow-covered forests of Swedish Lapland.

Following last night’s premiere, Hilary presented the four veterans with signed shirts from son-in-law David Beckham by way of congratulations.

Said Hilary:

“What a truly inspiring story!

“The team crossed into the Arctic Circle and travelled through snow and ice-covered rivers, lakes and forests to complete the Montane Lapland Arctic Ultra, one of the toughest ultra races in the world.

“For it all to be captured on film is simply amazing. I am in awe of their achievements. Huge congratulations to our Ambassador Brian - and to all the guys.”

The Arctic Adventure will broadcast on Channel 4 later this year.
