Story

We started the dip back in 2008 with my family when I was diagnosed with stage four Malignant Melanoma (I've since recovered!). This will be the 14th year of charging into the sea in aid of Macmillan Caring Locally. in the 14 years the dip has gown from just 8 of us charging in the sea for a bit of fun to in 2019 over 1,000 people joined me! 

The White Christmas Dip has raised over £250,000 for our local Palliative Care Unit in Christchurch Hospital. The work this Unit do and the nurses working under them are a vital service within the community and this year I'm hoping to raise £2,000 for them.
