Take the plunge and help shine the light on better mental health in Cornwall!
This World Mental Health Day on October 10th, we're challenging you to take a cold-water dip for Cornwall Mind!

Every participant will receive a fantastic goodie bag full of surprises - including some scented tealights kindly donated by St Eval and a discovery pinch pot set gifted by our major event sponsor, Cornish Sea Salt. There will also be special commemorative pin badge (thanks to Salty Swims CIC) as a thank you for making a difference.
🎟 Early Bird Offer – Dip in the Dark evening swim tickets just £10 in August (normally £12)!
