Plunge 4 POW
A Sponsored Swim to Celebrate International Women’s Day
Saturday 8th March, 10.30am at Walpole bay tidal pool
Join us for a bracing swim at Walpole Bay Tidal Pool on Saturday 8th March 2025 to celebrate International Women’s Day and support POW.
Meet at 10.30am (swim at 11am) at Walpole Bay Tidal Pool, Margate, CT9 3AB
If you don’t want to swim, you can still come and cheer us on! After we’ll be gathering for a hot drink at High Tide on Northdown Road before the rest of the Festival continues.
And if you’d like to donate £10 for POW’s 10th birthday, you can sponsor our CEO Rosanagh here.
You can set up your own Just Giving page and get your friends and family to sponsor your dip by selecting POW Thanet when it asks what charity you’re supporting.
Whether you’re a seasoned cold water swimmer or a complete beginner, we welcome everyone. This isn’t just about taking the plunge, it’s about challenging yourself, building community, and supporting women in the arts.
Why swim for POW?
Support women & non-binary people in Thanet and the arts

Let’s make a splash together!
