Story

Hello and thanks for supporting Dipping to Scotland.
I'm cycling 750 miles from Devon to the inaugural Scottish Winter Swimming Champs at Taymouth Marina, dipping in one of Britain's wild swimming spots every day en route, meeting their mad communities.

After swimming the River Thames as a mermaid I started receiving invites from cold water swimmers all round the country to join them. So, when I saw there was a championships up in Scotland of my new favourite hobby, I thought I'd take them all up on their offer, whilst raising money for Crisis. 

I've not lived in one spot for longer than 10 months for the last 15 years. I'm very nomadic, and often i don't know where i'm staying the following week/month. But, I'm always lucky enough to have a roof over my head. After I voluntarily dip into cold water I'm also fortunate to be able to warm up. Others aren't so lucky. 

Please help me help Crisis to end rough sleeping and homelessness. 

Much love,

Linds x
