Loch Shin Swimmers last took to the loch back in December, braving the elements to take on the “Twixmas Cold Water Dip Challenge” raising almost £900 for Young Lives vs Cancer.

Spectators are welcome at the Loch Shin Sailing Club jetty today from 5pm, where there will be hot drinks and home baking on offer in exchange for donations.
