I’m taking part in the Cold Swim for Women this St Brigid's Day to raise much needed funds for Women’s Aid.

Across Ireland one in three women live with suffocating abuse from someone they once loved; someone they once trusted. Every 5 minutes, someone reaches out to Women’s Aid for information and support.

Your contribution will make an impact, whether you donate a lot or a little, anything helps. I hope you can support me by donating whatever you can. By supporting Women’s Aid you can change lives and save lives.

Thanks so much for your support, it will bring hope, healing and the possibility of a brighter future for women and children.

Snámh Bhríde – Women’s Aid Cold Water Swim

Monday 5th Jan

Snámh Bhríde – Women’s Aid Cold Water Swim

Event Description
Welcome the day with Snámh Bhríde, a special dawn cold-water swim celebrating Brigit, the Snow Full Moon, and women’s strength, resilience and solidarity.

Taking place Sunday 1st February at 7.30am in the historic Clontarf Baths, this atmospheric swim looks out across Dublin Bay as morning breaks. The event begins with a fast, warming yoga session poolside, followed by music and an artistic, collective swim honouring Brigit’s deep connection to water.

Participants will also hear a short address from Sarah Benson, CEO of Women's Aid, as the organisation launches its national cold-water swim initiative in Dublin City. 

After the swim, gather for hot drinks and baked treats to warm up, connect, and reflect.

The event is supported by the Women’s Committee of Dublin City Council.
