One dip every day, in any form of cold water. For all of October.

Need more reasons to get involved in the challenge? 

Here are the top 5 reasons to take part in our Dip a Day challenge:

1. Cold water can be for everyone

This is something anyone in good health can have a go at, no matter where you live or how little time you have. From a cold shower to a garden tub or your local swim spot, you can help raise funds for SAS dipping in any cold water that is safe and accessible to you.  

2. The mental health benefits are huge 

Cold water causes short-term stress, which kickstarts the body and gives you a high from increased dopamine, serotonin and endorphin levels. Plus, studies have shown that cold water can boost your immune system and could potentially help with conditions from rheumatism to depression.*

3. Because Keynvor said so...

Ten-year-old Keynvor took on the challenge last year... “On Day 31 of the challenge, seeing what I’d achieved, it was unreal. I was like, ‘I’ve raised so much and got the attention of South West Water too.'" 

4. Save the ocean 

Raise vital funds for Surfers Against Sewage's ocean-saving work.
