Joining many in the sea at Brighton at the conclusion of the ride, Philip was elated to have completed the ride raising over £2,000 for the charity with his team members Julian Price, Liz Orton and Steve Clunes.

“I’ve never taken part in anything like this before, and really wasn’t sure that I’d make it to the end. But the atmosphere on the day was amazing, I’m pleased to have taken part and raised money for charity,” commented Philip Dodson.

Since it started in 1980 the event has raised more than £35 million for the British Heart Foundation charity.
