Achieve the impossible……….

We could never have imagined how much one small article in a newspaper could have changed our lives....'Women wanted to walk to North Pole'. Within two years, Sue & Victoria Riches (mother and daughter), were trekking across the frozen wilderness that is the Arctic Ocean, as part of the first all women's expedition to the North Pole. At times totally terrifying and at times indescribably beautiful, it was a trip of a lifetime. We discovered that ANYTHING is possible if you put your mind to it, and if you WANT to succeed. We have since written a book, Frigid Women, and regularly give talks all over the world. If we only inspire one person to follow their dream, then we have succeeded.

Always remember that anything is possible - just believe in yourself

This website was originally designed to promote our Polar Talks; however, since our return we have discovered that our mantra, 'anything is possible', really is true. Sue has continued as an English teacher and given up her catering business, while Victoria now runs a successful training and development company. We therefore decided that this site would be dedicated to anything that proves that you really can achieve the impossible if you have the desire and motivation!
