This week on Rise we are delighted to be interviewing our first ever guests. Jazmine and Mandy are the founders of the Happy Chilly Dippers, an open water swimming group in Merseyside which now has over 5000 members, including Liz! We are chatting with them about all things cold water swimming and the many benefits this brilliant activity can have for our physical and mental health.
