Join Jo, an experienced open water guide, for an exciting opportunity to experience the health benefits of cold water swimming.

Jo, from Wild Bathing, will be there to offer tips and information to help you feel confident in entering the water. However, there is no pressure to swim on the day, and the session will be short due to the time of year. The focus is on experiencing the mental and physical benefits of cold water immersion. After the dip, you'll have the opportunity to get changed in a portable changing room provided by Jo. To warm up, hot drinks and sweet treats will be available. Please note that this session is only suitable for those who can swim, and a health questionnaire and waiver will need to be signed upon booking. If you have any health concerns, a GP letter may be required for consent to enter the cold water. For any questions or information about what to bring, you can reach out to Jo at info@wildbathing.co.uk. As this is a funded activity, we offer tickets on a 'pay what you can' basis, with suggested prices that have been subsidized.
