Across West Sussex there are 17,000 people living with dementia and this is expected to increase by 16% by 2025, and 36% by 2030, as the population ages - leaving more people in need of support.

By fundraising or donating you will be helping us continue to provide vital dementia support services for families and individuals living with dementia.

The Dip for Dementia challenge can include:

A dip in the sea, from paddling to total immersion

Cold water bath

Cold shower

Dip in a cold swimming pool or ‘hot’ tub

Cold water therapy is widely praised for the benefits it can bring to our mental health when it is used in the correct way.

All safety considerations should be taken into account before taking part in the Dip For Dementia. Therefore, we would urge everyone to read through and agree to the following safety dos and don’ts before taking the plunge.
