A Dip a Day in March

Dip a Day in March

I'm dipping in cold water every day in March for St Wilfrid's Hospice

Throughout the whole of March, I'll be taking a cold plunge in the sea, an ice bath, a pool or a cold shower, every single day to raise vital funds for St Wilfrid's Hospice. I would be so grateful for any donation, big or small, that you can give to help me reach my target.

St Wilfrid's Hospice provides high-quality care and support for people across Eastbourne, Seaford, Hailsham, Uckfield, Healthfield, and all points between, with life-limiting illnesses. Support is offered at the hospice, in patients' own homes, and in care homes. Over 70% of the funds to provide these services come from voluntary donations. Please help me continue to support this cause.

I am doing this challenge, as my mum Sheila spent the last 9 days of her life at this hospice. 
She was given care, kindness and most of all  the respect, that she deserved. 
My Mum always took part in donating to the hospice, so I want to continue to help raise funds, as a thanks for the dignity they gave her. 

Thank you
