Scarborough Woman Takes on the 12 Dips of Christmas

A Scarborough women has replaced her advent calendar with an altogether more challenging Christmas Countdown.

A Scarborough woman is combining the countdown to Christmas with a charity fundraiser for Cancer Research.

Anne Hunter has signed up for a rather chilly challenge involving the North sea and a wig.

Anne is taking part in the 12 Dips of Christmas which sees her taking a dip in the North Sea each day to raise money for Cancer Research UK.

Anne says she has a very personal reason for taking part.

People around the UK are taking part in the Twelve Dips of Christmas fundraising campaign which has so far raised over £261,000.

There are more details about Anne's fundraising efforts on her Cancer Research Giving page at https://fundraise.cancerresearchuk.org/page/annes-giving-page-936
