A CHARITY tackling homelessness in Reading is set to hold its inaugural summer solstice event this June to raise funds and promote wellness.

Launchpad has announced it will be hosting a Summer Solstice Swim at Dinton Pastures Activity Centre to celebrate the longest day of the year with fundraising and activities.

The event will begin with welcome drinks, guided meditation, and a sound bath, before a mindful swim as the sunsets.

There will also be a portable sauna on site to warm up after the swim, and a prize raffle taking place.

All proceeds from the evening will support Launchpad’s work supporting those facing homelessness in Reading.

Fundraising Manager Fiona Keyte said: “We’re so excited to be planning this event which will bring the community together for an evening of mindfulness and relaxation.
