| The Peel New Year Dip began
on 1st January 1983 with a total of 4 dippers raising £50.00
for Multiple Sclerosis. |
The
number of dippers increased in the following years, as did the
charities receiving money. The Peel R.N.L.I was added and then
a third charity changing each year.
The "third" charities
in the past have been Crossroads Care, Motor Neurone, Western Live-at-home,
Special Olympics and Peel division of St John ambulance and many
more.
In
total the dip has raised over £100,000 through the kindness of
many people. |

On
1st January 2008 at 12 noon the dip will take place again,
with money being raised for multiple sclerosis, Peel R.N.L.I and
Hospice Care, three worthwhile charities. >> Entry
