Hundreds of people braved poor weather and took to the waters of Horseshoe Bay for the Polar Plunge in support of Special Olympics Bermuda.
The charity said: “Events like the Polar Plunge help support our Special Olympic athletes with their on-going training and funding for International Events like the upcoming 2023 Summer World Games in Berlin, Germany.
“We encourage you to reach out to your friends, families or co-workers and ask them to financially support your efforts and/or join you in the challenge of ‘Freezin for a Reason’ in support of Special Olympics.”
