Jo and her 31 dips in 93 days

Jo Wright has completed her challenge of taking a ‘dip’ in 31 lakes in the English Lake District within 93 days. She did it in 79 days! It was a bit of a family thing with her husband, Phil (an MMF Trustee), discovering a talent for voice-overs and her daughters either swimming/running with her (Hannah) or publicising the project on the socials (Charlie and Hannah). Phil’s mother made an appearance in number 24. Well done, the Wright family!
