    Grey Dippers raise over £24,000 by swimming in the Firth of Clyde at Ardrossan South Beach.

    A team of wild swimmers brave the bracing Boxing Day cold to complete the last of more than 300 charity dips to raise more than £22,000 for a food bank.

    Members of the Grey Dippers fundraising group have been taking the plunge at South Beach, Ardrossan, every day since the end of October to generate cash.

    The initial aim was to raise £1,000 for the North Ayrshire Food Bank.

    But the nine-strong team was backed by their local community who dipped into their pockets to send the tally soaring.
