Lee-on-the-Solent girl, 9, takes plunge into sea every day for Surfers against Sewage campaign
A nine-year-old girl is backing a campaign against ocean pollution by taking the plunge into the sea every day.
Leela, of Lee-on-the-Solent, is taking part in the Surfers against Sewage “dip a day in October” challenge.
Despite the cold, every day this month she’s been swimming in the sea, taking cold showers or doing the ice bucket challenge in a bid to raise awareness and money about sea pollution.
Her mum Charlotte said: “Some days have been harder than others but even after a long, busy day she remains committed to doing her daily dip.”
