With a focus on the young explorers, the Greenland 2009 expedition aims to make contributions to the development of personal values and beliefs and relationships with others, the environment and the world. Young people will be guided and supported to undertake significant scientific work and challenging journeys in a remote and wild landscape to achieve these aims.

BSES run overseas expeditions for 16-23 year olds to some of the most remote regions on Earth. To find out more go to http://www.bses.org.uk/

Recce

Wednesday 13th May
An early start to get to Heathrow in good time and we made it there despite the M25 traffic. All easy with the journey and coach from Keflavik to Reykjavik which took about an hour. Tim, Nancy and Pete spent the entire time writing lists and talking about things we need to do. Tim mainly focused on science, where we need to get to in the fjord, what would be interesting to find out in preparation for the expedition and who we need to make contact with. Nancy and Pete spent the whole time talking about transport and logistics, what’s in the container (which is now ‘en route’) and who will travel where and when in the main party.
