After successfully circumnavigating the UK and Ireland by sea kayak, Cornwall policeman Sgt Sean Morley plans to lead a group of paddlers on the first circumnavigation of South Georgia in the South Atlantic this December.

Last September, Morley completed a 4,500 mile paddle around the UK and Ireland. The expedition took six months.

The trip raised more than £8,000, which will be donated to the RNLI and the Marine Conservation Society.

For his South Georgia trip, Morley will need to raise significant funding. He also faces competition from another group from New Zealand who are planning the same trip early next year.

Morely is a former member of the Great Britain kayak racing team, and has previously circumnavigated Scotland, a 500 mile journey, and paddled across the St. George's Channel in the Irish Sea.
