Wild & Free are running an annual fundraising campaign every January to encourage people to start the year positively by taking a dip a day in January to help your own mental health through the power of cold water therapy and to fundraise for our 3 favourite mental health charities that are supporting people in our communities across ireland and gb, Pieta House, The Samaritans and Aware.

Our 3 fundraising pages for each charity are connected and you can choose which charity you wish to donate to.

On top of this Wild & Free are also donating £5 for everyone who is taking part in the challenge for every dip they do in January.
