About

Ilkley and District Good Neighbours are inviting the bold and brave-hearted to take a dip in the icy waters at White Wells to raise money for the charity. 

Bring a swimming costume, towel and layers of warm clothes to change into afterwards. If you have a dry robe that would be ideal. There will an emergency first-aider present for the duration of the event.

We will be providing a warm drink for all dippers. Please support the café at White Wells by buying some snacks and drinks for any supporters with you. Please bring cash to pay for refreshments from the café.

Guide Prices

There is no cost to participate, but we do ask for a donation from each dipper. There are some suggested donation amounts and how they would help IDGN on the About Us page.
We would prefer everyone to book in advance so we know who to expect on the day
