On an autumnal day in October (12-10-2014) over 100 persons took to the sea at Gylly Beach in Falmouth, joining Ruth Hitchcock for her 365th swim in the sea.

Since October 2023, Ruth has taken on a remarkable challenge: a daily dip in the cold sea, every single day, in honour of her husband, Dave, who was diagnosed with neuroendocrine cancer. Ruth’s journey has been nothing short of incredible—dipping through stormy weather, freezing temperatures, and relentless waves—all to raise awareness and funds for Neuroendocrine Cancer UK. It’s been tough, both physically and emotionally, but Ruth’s determination and love for Dave have inspired so many along the way.
On 12th October, Ruth will mark her 365th dip, a full year of showing up, no matter what.
