Prince Harry plans to support soldiers by completing a special expedition alongside a team of wounded servicemen.<\/p>\n

He will undertake a 200 mile walk to the North Pole in a bid to raise funds for Walking With The Wounded, with BBC One filming the trip.<\/p>\n

The prince is the charity's patron and he says: "The funds that Walking with the Wounded will … make a life-changing difference to injured servicemen and women from our armed forces."<\/p>\n

All members of the team will be taking their own equipment and supplies to the North Pole and will have no back-up vehicles or doctors.<\/p>\n

Afghanistan veterans will be embarking on the mission with Prince Harry, all of whom have suffered life-changing injuries while being on duty, the BBC reports.<\/p>\n

The royal will be joining the team for the first leg of their trek, which is set to begin this month.<\/p>\n

He may well be keen to make it back in time for preparations for the royal wedding between Prince William and Kate Middleton, held on April 29th.<\/p>\n
