This Boxing Day, 14 of our incredible volunteers and supporters are braving the freezing waters at Seaburn to raise funds for Sunderland Community Soup Kitchen.

We’re truly lucky to have people who give their time, their energy, and—on this occasion—their body heat to support others. They never do it for recognition. They do it because they care.

At Sunderland Community Soup Kitchen, we support people all year round, not just at Christmas. From warm meals to food support and community connection, we’re here every single week for those who need us most.

If you’re able to support our dip team, we’d be so grateful. Every donation—big or small—helps us continue the work we do long after the festive season has passed.

Thank you for cheering them on, believing in our mission, and standing with us as we support our community together.
