Hundreds of people took the plunge on New Year’s Day to raise money for Mind and welcome in the New Year.
The Imperial Hotel and Swim All Seasons supported the mental health charity Mind by organising a community swim on New Year’s Day.
“We're delighted that the Imperial Hotel and Swim All Seasons have supported us again for this year's New Year swim, and that about 200 people chose to take a dip!” said a spokesperson.
“We raised over £500 which is a fabulous amount and will go towards our work supporting people in the community.”
It wasn’t just those in Guernsey taking a dip to usher in 2024, brave swimmers in Alderney and Sark also gathered to dive into the waves.
Alderney rep Alex Snowdon shared the video below on social media:
