Our medicine students raised money for charity today by going for a swim, in fancy dress, in the sea. Bear in mind (pun intended) that it’s January and the water’s pretty chilly. They called this the Polar Bear Swim. Some of the staff got involved too, notably Phil here in blonde wig and black bikini. It looks as though they were worried more about the fancy dress than about the water. The RNLI were on hand from the lifeboat station across the bay and a film crew were filming to add to today’s weather report.
