The first granny to race to the South Pole, extreme adventurer and peace campaigner Tess Burrows has gone to the very limits to pursue her mission: to promote peace on earth. She has sent off thousands of messages from the North and South Poles, the Himalayas, the Andes, the Pacific and Africa raising money for charity.
