Cornwall Air Ambulance Launches “Brave the Blue” Cold Water Challenge

Cornwall Air Ambulance has introduced a unique fundraising initiative named “Brave the Blue” to support the acquisition of a second AW169 helicopter. This initiative encourages individuals to participate in cold water immersion daily for a month of their choice, aiming to boost both funds for the service and the participants’ wellbeing.

Participants are invited to take a dip in various cold water sources such as local beaches, rivers, lakes, lidos, pools, or even at home using showers, steel baths in the garden, or bins filled with icy water. This wide range of options ensures that individuals can get involved from any location, making the challenge accessible to a broad audience.

The “Brave the Blue” challenge not only seeks to raise essential funds for Cornwall Air Ambulance but also promotes the benefits of cold water immersion on wellbeing, highlighting the dual benefits of participating in the campaign.

For those interested in taking part or learning more about the challenge, further details are available on the Cornwall Air Ambulance website. This initiative represents a vital step towards securing a second AW169 helicopter, crucial for enhancing the service’s operational capabilities and ensuring continued support to the community.
