Sporting festive morph suits, the team – senior features reporter Andrew Doherty; marketing manager Dan Heath; sponsorship sales manager James Francis; and deputy news editor James Chapple – threw themselves into water of barely 6C at London’s Brockwell Lido on Saturday (14 December) during the Crisis Icebreaker challenge, before completing a width.
Together, they raised just shy of £450, plus another £70 in gift aid on top of a £28.87pp registration fee; each £28.87 raised is enough to reserve a place for someone who is homeless at a Crisis Christmas centre this winter, providing them with warmth, hot food, and advice and support on health and wellbeing services.
