how much do you want to spend?

two books I love are Waterlog by Roger Deakin

and The Mindful Art of Wild Swimming by Tessa Wardley

if she swims all year round she might like a flask/hot food container

A dryrobe

(Other, cheaper options are available on Amazon)

A friend who is a wild swimmer got given a USB rechargeable handwarmer this week and seemed delighted.

I give Huub vouchers to my outdoor swimming relative. He often needs new goggles. But he knows what he needs more than I do.

Handwarmer/phone bank example

Loved it!

Have a look at Selkie Swim Co - they've got lovely fleecy mittens but I second a dryrobe or flask.

I love my USB handwarmer. Wearable hot water bottles are v popular in my groups at the moment.

Sista Stitch made me a gorgeous swimming bag (the red one in their photos) last week with matching mat and wet bag which is absolutely lovely.

Swimbler bobble hats are great, very happy with mine.
Contiguo thermal cups are something I'm always glad of as the push to drink means they don't spill while you are shivering

Lidl are doing a heated car seat warmer this week. And various non-electric reusable heat pads.
