Chemmy surprised commuters by traversing the walkways of Waterloo Underground Station and the heights IFS Cloud Cable car, kitted-up in skis and full winter sports gear.

“I am thrilled to be appearing at National Snow Week’s inaugural London Snow Show this year. The Snow Show has grown over the years and is now bigger and better than ever before and will be in the Capital for the first time. The slopes are more accessible than ever and this is the perfect place for both beginners and those already comfortable with snow sports,” said Chammy.

The London Snow Show will feature expert advice from the biggest and brightest stars in the UK snow sports scene, as well as the opportunity for a community of enthusiasts to shop the latest kit, or book their next winter holiday.
