Paul Rogers fundraising for The Mater Hospital Foundation with Team Raging Bull

3 weeks to go until Dickie Dip 2026! 🥶🌊 ​First off, a huge thank you to everyone who has already donated for this great cause—your generosity, kindness and support is humbling. Every single euro helps, and I am truly grateful. ​On Saturday, November 7th, I’ll be braving the water for my 5th Dickie Dip to raise vital funds for the Mater Foundation and help shine a light on men’s health and prostate cancer awareness. ​This year's dip is deeply personal for us. Sadly, we lost one of our fellow dippers, Matt, earlier this year. It won’t be the same without him on the beach, but we are dipping in his memory to carry on his legacy in raising awareness of Prostate Cancer. Together as team Raging Bull—named after Matt’s boat—we’ve set a big target for the Mater Foundation. Could we hit 20K? ​We’re in the final stretch now, and we need your help to hit that target! ​Here’s how you can help us. ​Donate a few euro: No amount is too small, and every contribution makes a real impact.
