Feeling perky!

Cold-water swimming is becoming increasingly popular, and after the success of Whim Hoff’s recent ‘Feel the Freeze’, more and more people are stripping off and braving an icy dip. The perks are well documented. It improves cardiovascular health and circulation, boosts your immune system, gives your metabolism a kickstart, is great exercise and, most importantly, makes you feel fantastic! For anyone looking to give it a go, it is highly recommended to join a group, not only for safety and advice, but also for the camaraderie and fun. The Bluetits Chill Swimmers have groups in Southwold, Thorpeness and Shingle Street – just go to the website to find your flock and take the plunge. www.thebluetits.co
