Dips & Trips

05/09/2026

🌊 GOOD MORNING LADIES! 💙

Who’s joining us for our Sunday dip tomorrow?! 🥶💦

We’re heading to Rivelin Plunge Pool and it would be lovely to see some familiar faces and some new ones! There’s nothing better than starting a Sunday with a dip, fresh air and the best company. 💙

📍 Travelling with us?
Let’s meet at Stocksbridge Co-op car park at 9am, and we’ll head off together, following each other down to Rivelin. 🚗💨

🚗 Need a lift or have a spare space? Pop a comment below and hopefully we can get everyone there. I’ll have a couple of spaces in my car too. 💙

🌊 Meeting us there? We’ll be at the Rails Road car park for around 9:30am.

⚠️ PLEASE NOTE: We are not parking at the car park near Rivelin Splash Pool, where everyone parks to use the play area and splash area. We travel further along that road before turning left onto Rails Road, where our meeting point is.

Newbies, regulars, nervous dippers or just coming along for the good vibes — everyone is welcome! 🥰

Come and start your Sunday with us! 💦💙

💦 LAST WEEKEND💦

Last Sunday we welcomed SO many new women to Dips & Trips for an early morning dip, and it was amazing to see so many new faces! 🥰

If you've been thinking about trying cold water dipping, NOW is the perfect time to start. 🩵 The water is gradually getting colder, giving your body the chance to slowly adapt before those really cold winter months arrive. 🥶

But alongside all the amazing benefits, I cannot stress enough the importance of safety.

I created Dips & Trips so women can come together and support one another, both mentally and physically. But open water can be unpredictable, and no dip is worth putting yourself at unnecessary risk.

🚫 We do NOT encourage swimming across lakes or reservoirs.
🚫 We don't go out when the weather is dangerous, the water is rough or conditions aren't suitable.
✅ We carefully consider where and when we go.
✅ We take precautions when entering the water.
✅ We look out for each other.

But even with all of this… you can never be too careful around open water.

There is also NO pressure to get in. Come along, meet the girls, have a chat, watch, dip your toes or take the plunge when you're ready. ❤️

Let's enjoy the cold, enjoy the community and, most importantly, keep each other safe. 🩵

Who's joining us for the next one? 👀💦

💦🥶 IF YOU’VE NEVER TRIED COLD WATER DIPPING BEFORE… NOW IS THE PERFECT TIME TO START! 💙

The water is still manageable, so it’s a great time to start gently conditioning your body and mind to the cold — so when those proper chilly autumn and winter dips arrive, you’ll feel so much more confident and prepared! ❄️💪🧠

So, ladies… who’s up for a dip tomorrow morning?! 🙌

📍 Our usual spot — Underbank Reservoir Activity Centre

⏰ 8am

Whether you’re a complete newbie or a seasoned dipper, come along! No pressure, no judgement — just fresh air, good company and plenty of laughs! 😂💙

Come and take the plunge with us! 🥶💦

🌿💦 WHAT A BEAUTIFUL MORNING! 💦🌿

Honestly ladies… what an adventure! 😍

We headed off to one of my favourite waterfalls and it did NOT disappoint! Absolutely stunning 💙

I’m genuinely so proud of every single one of you, especially all the newbies who came along and just gave it a go! 🥹❤️

Just a few muddy paths, slippery rocks, lots of laughs and a whole lot of fun 😂🌿💦

This is exactly why I started Dips & Trips — getting out, trying new things, meeting lovely women and making memories along the way. 🥰

You were all brilliant! ❤️

🌿💦 LADIES… TOMORROW WE’RE OFF ON AN ADVENTURE! 💦🌿

SUNDAY 23RD AUGUST | 9AM 📍

We’re meeting at the Co-op car park in Stocksbridge at 9am, a little later than originally planned so you can have a bit of a lay in.

I’ll be near the entrance waving 👋 and will give everyone a quick update before we head off together.

🚗 Around 15 mins drive to our destination
🥾 Less than a mile to the waterfall
💦 And yes… we’ll be going through water to get there! 😍

🎒 WHAT TO BRING:
👟 Old trainers/water shoes with good grip
🧦 Spare socks
👕 Change of clothes
🧖‍♀️ Towel
☕ Hot drink
💧 Water
🩱 Swimwear (id recommend having this on before setting off) if you’re planning on getting in!

The walk is short but there are uneven, wet and slippery sections, so please wear footwear you’re comfortable walking in and don’t mind getting wet.

Don’t worry if you’re new — we’ll stick together and take our time! 💙

I’m SO excited for this one! 😍🌿💦

See you at 9am, ladies! 👋

🌿💦 LADIES… OUR FIRST DIPS & TRIPS ADVENTURE! 💦🌿

This Sunday we’re heading out on our first venture to a beautiful hidden waterfall 😍

🚗 Around 20 minutes by car
🥾 Then a 45–60 minute walk (depending on our pace!)
💦 And at the end… a beautiful little waterfall & plunge pool waiting for us! 🥶💙

It’s going to be a proper little adventure — walking, exploring, dipping and hopefully lots of laughs along the way! 🥰

⚠️ A LITTLE HEADS UP: The walk to the waterfall involves uneven and sometimes challenging terrain, and there are sections where we’ll be walking through water. Please make sure you’re prepared with suitable footwear and clothing, and come ready for a little adventure! 🥾💦

We’ll do it together, take our time and nobody is being rushed. It’s all about enjoying the experience, looking out for each other and having fun! ❤️

🚗 CAR SHARING: There isn't much of a car park, its more of a layby and is VERY small, so I’d really suggest car sharing where possible.

📍 I’m happy to meet everyone who wants to come along at the Co-op car park at 8am this Sunday, and we can head over together.

So… WHO’S IN? 👀💦🥾

Bring your walking shoes, swim stuff and adventure spirit! 💙

Dips & Trips — let’s go exploring! 🌿💦🥾

I’m unable to commit to an organised dip this weekend due to family plans. I may be able to do one last minute if my plans change, so keep an eye on the page! 👀

And the following week… we’ve got an adventure, a hike and a hidden waterfall planned. 🥾🌿💦
