Former IW skater Charlotte Aiken and ice dance partner Josh Whidborne are in action this week in the senior dance category of the Ice Challenge 2013 in Graz, Austria (20-24 November 2013). The couple have largely been out of action this season owing to an injury sustained in training.

Charlotte’s brother Henry Aiken and ice dance partner Mina Zdravkova are also competing at the event in the junior dance.
