At the culmination of Mental Health Awareness Week on the Isle of Man, Ramsey Crookall was very proud to sponsor the Isle Listen SEA DIP FOR YOUR SANITY event, which took place in Ramsey Bay at 8am on Saturday 14th May.   

It was the perfect summer morning with blue skies and a calm sea. The Sea Dip attracted hundreds of participants and included Nicola Morrison, Dan Pennington, Luke Smith, Joe Butler, George Willoughby and Mica Caley from the Ramsey Crookall office, cheered on by CEO Joanna Crookall.   

There is much evidence that spending time in blue spaces has a very positive impact on our mental health, and immersion in cold water releases hormones in our body that aids sleep and can counteract feelings of depression and anxiety. The event was an opportunity for members of the Island community to show support for each other’s mental health through the powers of sea dipping. For some, it was their first dip and certainly not their last!   

A huge thank you to all the participants and volunteers on the day for providing their support and encouragement to make the event such a successful, enjoyable and memorable experience.
