Make Waves for Wishes – anywhere, anytime and enter our festive swim on either Christmas Day, Boxing Day or New Year’s Eve.
1000s of swimmers across the country take part in the festive swim over the Christmas period. The deeply rooted Finnish tradition has become a fun, festive dip and you can submerge yourself with the gift of giving by supporting our wishes.
Take the plunge in a festive outfit or chosen swim wear and see how long you last in the water!
Support a small charity make a BIG difference!
Help us bring a little more sparkle to sick children over Christmas. Some of our tangible wishes such as an iPad with accessories offers an educational purpose when absent from school, as well as a tool to communicate with friends during long stays in hospital when receiving medical treatment. The accessories are the fun elements such as computer games where our wish children can play and escape from their illness.
