Jeremy Deller // 30 Jan chYps Fundraiser: Chilli Dip // 15 Feb © SEVENOAKS CHRONICLE Are you bbbbrave enough to take on the coolest challenge of the year? Literally. If so, why not take an ice-cold dip in the frosty waters of St Julians' outdoor swimming pool, while raising money for Kent-based children's hospice, chYps? Whether you paddle a length or swim a couple of laps, all will be crowned chilli dippers in their book. All that chYps asks is that you pledge to raise as much sponsorship as possible for their vital cause! Once you've completed your challenge, you can thaw out with a bowl of red-hot chilli and a chilli dipper's certificate, all of which is included in your £15 registration fee. All spectators enter free of charge, so friends and family of the dippers are welcome to come and watch the action from the viewing balcony. Changing facilities are available but please bring your own towels. St Julians is a beautiful, private member's club with extensive grounds, children's play area and disabled access. 10.30am – 4pm.
