Do you dare to dip?

Take the plunge for the Ellen MacArthur Cancer Trust at the Gurnard Green Boxing Day Dip!

Join us at 11am at the sailing club to celebrate 10 years of this exhilarating tradition. But don’t worry if you don’t live on the Isle of Wight – that’s no excuse to duck out! Whether you’re by the coast, near a chilly lake, or at your local lido, you can still take the plunge wherever you are – just find a splash of water and dive in!

It might take your breath away, but it’s nothing compared to the shock young people and their families face when they first hear the word 'cancer.' Pledge to raise a minimum of £10 in sponsorship and help inspire young people to believe in a brighter future living through and beyond cancer. Wherever you are, your support will make a real splash!

You don't have to be on the Isle of Wight

Boxing Day Dips happen across the UK. Even if you’re not on the coast there’s plenty of lidos and lakes so if there’s one near you, why not sign up and brave it?

Don’t forget to use #DareToDip and tag @EMCTrust on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram to show us what you’re made of!
