Although there was no rain or snow, those taking part in the Boxing Day Dip still had to brave the icy North Sea.
As well as shaking off the cobwebs from the day before, many of the participants were raising money for various charities including Georgina Hill, Northumberland County councillor for Berwick East, and Colin Hardy, county councillor for Norham and Islandshires, in aid of the Motor Neurone Disease Association.
Coun Hill said: “It was an incredible turnout at Spittal. Swimming in the North Sea is extremely invigorating, especially at this time of year!
“It is great fun and we have also raised over £700 (and counting) for the fight against Motor Neurone Disease.
“This year, we particularly remember Doddie Weir.”
