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.

Final Day
Tuesday 31st Mar Last dip was Saturday when I swam.in the cold sea for 3 minutes!
Nearly reached my goal!
Monday 23rd Mar Massive thanks to my last sponsors yesterday, after my Sunday dip recorded 11° with the go pro video camera for that immersive feeling! 🥶🌊
DAY 18 Post Run Cool Down
Wednesday 18th Mar After naughtily skipping my dips, I finally ended a short run with a low-tide cool down. There’s nothing like those waves to soothe the muscles, that sharp, cold shock is the ultimate nervous system reset, it’s the best way to transition from a sweaty run! Share

Day 10
Tuesday 10th Mar First Brighton Sea Dip since starting the challenge...last time I was at this spot I did do a 750m swim so I'm not sure why I always feel like a chicken getting into the sea...I think a wetsuit does make a big difference!
DAY 9 🌫️ Sooooo Misty
Monday 9th Mar Wow these misty mornings and nights will not be missed once Spring 🌱 has finally pushed it's head through... although it sometimes snows in April ❄️

Good luck Kelly. What a wonderful thing to do. I am mentoring a social work student who is on placement there at the minute and know it’s takes 26k a day to keep it running and they only get a small amount of that off the government. Love Dawn and Blair
