Story

The best way to start Christmas Day!  Great atmosphere, brilliant costumes ……come on down, it will be great to see you. 

On a serious note all of us know someone who has been effected with Cancer. Every £1 raised in sponsorship will help provide the best possible care in the Hospice at Christchurch Hospital, and for the patients in the community.

This is my 8th year for supporting Macmillan Caring locally by dipping in the cold sea on Christmas Day. It’s now part of my Christmas🎅 tradition.  I would like to say a huge thank you to all my family, friends and work colleagues who have supported me over the years 🥰😀and still support me. I have raised so far a whopping £3,198 👏👏
