CHILLY festive dips are on offer for brave swimmers in Wiveliscombe’s outdoor pool.

‘Twixmas and New Year’ sessions can be booked online with Wivey Pool for December 27 to 31 and New Year’s Day and January 2 to 5.

Sessions at 8.30 am, 9.15 am, and 10 am will be available except New Year’s Day when it is only 10 am to 11.30 am.

The water will be 21 degrees and swimmers are required to read the pool’s ‘Cold Water Shock1’ document.

A spokesperson said: “We have been blown away by Storm Darragh, broken into and burgled, but undaunted we will be open on December 27 for morning lanes.

“Come say ‘hi’ to the volunteers and staff who have worked tirelessly to achieve this.”
