Brrrrrrrrrave the Cold for Lancashire Women!

Sponsored by Clitheroe Cryo, the ‘Brave the Cold’ big dip event will take place this Sunday January 14 at Marles Wood starting from 10am. The dip will be the day before ‘Blue Monday’, which is claimed to be the day of the year where people find themselves the lowest on average, so to fight the blues why not take on the plunge. It will be a fun, social event, and the perfect way to start of 2024!

There will be a breath session before the dip to get everyone calm and ready, and after a free hot brew! All money raised in sign up fees and sponsorship will be going to support Lancashire Women.
