‘Challenge of a lifetime’: UK charity seeks applicants for jobs in Antarctica

No flush toilets or running water are on offer, but perks include breathtaking landscapes, whales and lots of penguins

For people who never moan about the cold, can take or leave showers and will get used to a relentless thrum of hooting trumpet noises, ideal jobs have come up.

A heritage charity is advertising vacancies at the bottom of the world. Based in Antarctica, just 9,000 miles from the UK, successful applicants will have to adapt to near-constant daylight, always freezing temperatures and no flushing toilet or running water.
