More than 2,500 women nude bathing set Guinness record

On June 9, more than 2,500 women broke the Guinness record when dumping bathing in a remote area in Ireland.

This is the 6th year of this annual event, called Take and Bath, organized by Mrs. Deirdre Featherstone, a patient who has beaten breast cancer. This year, the event will raise funds for Aoibheann's Pink Tie, a charity for children with cancer in Ireland.

The Independent said only women were allowed to attend the event and they included cancer patients, who had overcome illness or those affected by the disease. Reportedly, Mrs. Featherstone decided to hold a nude bathing session just 6 weeks after undergoing breast removal surgery.

In the opening year, there were only 60 participants but this number increased to 200 last year.

"With laughter, scars and unkempt breasts, we want to send a message that life after cancer continues and enhances women's awareness of the importance of screening. It's a wonderful day for all participants, "said Featherstone on the registration page.

This year a total of 2,505 women of all ages participated in the Meaghermore beach event in Wicklow County, where the sea temperature was only about 12 degrees Celsius. They succeeded in breaking the Guinness record in the bath event category. The most participatory nude sea in the world was established in Perth - Australia in 2015 by 786 people.

According to Mrs. Featherstone, they raised more than 153,000 euros, but she hopes the money will reach 250,000 euros within the next two weeks.
