This December, I decided on a challenge....

To take a “dip a day” in my outdoor ice bath to raise money for The Cinnamon Trust. Come rain, shine, dark night or ice, I'll be in there once a day taking deep breaths and thinking of warmer times!!

The Cinnamon Trust are an incredible charity that supports elderly and terminally ill people by helping them care for their much-loved pets (of all shapes and sizes), to make sure they never have to face the sorrow of parting from their beloved companion due to lack of support.

I’m doing this in memory of much missed Betsy and her dad, Keith, whom we were lucky enough to meet through the Trust.

We feel so grateful to have had them both in our lives, and I wanted to give something back to a charity that brings comfort, companionship, and practical help to people and their wonderful animals when they need it most.

Betsy was our gorgeous, gentle girl - who ironically would have strongly disapproved of getting into cold water - preferring to always find a cosy spot on the sofa.

Thank you for considering giving to this wonderful cause that is so close to our hearts
