A Welsh woman is aiming to be the youngest female Briton to scale Everest.

Tori James has already conquered Cho Oyu, the sixth highest peak and has set her sights on the world’s tallest.

The 25-year old, from Pembrokeshire, has also reached the North Pole and this year  summited Kilimanjaro. Her trek to the North Pole got her in the record books as the youngest woman to undertake the challenge.

Among the Everest 2007 team she will be with is her partner Ben Stephens. She has been in training for the expedition for 18 months.

The ascent on Everest is expected to take place in May.
