IT may have been one of the warmest New Year’s days on record but Penarths waters will still have felt freezing cold on New Year’s Day, and the last place many of us would dream of going for a swim at 11am!
But the water temperature didn’t stop Penarth Town Mayor, Cllr Ian Buckley as well as staff and friends of MHA Morel Court from taking the plunge and raising over £1000 in support of the local care facility.
MHA are the UK’s largest charity care provider and are dedicated to enabling older people to live later life well. The dip was organised by staff of Morel Court and all monies raised will enable residents to thrive in later life. Staff members Suzanne, Hayley, Mandy, June, Linda, Kaysha, Faith, Carley, and Area Manager Kath, pride themselves on going the extra mile for residents and the New Years Dip is no exception.
