The club, which has just under 4000 community members, hosts outdoor events throughout Scotland, and offers a range of services to help those who struggle with addiction, alcoholism, and domestic abuse.
The Polar Bear Club is also proud to announce that it is in partnership with the Kindness Homeless charity, which provides support to individuals and families experiencing homelessness.
"We are thrilled to open our new headquarters in Glasgow," said Kenny Neilson, founder of the Polar Bear Club. "Our new facility will provide a space for people to come together and experience the benefits of cold water therapy, as well as receive support and guidance from our experienced team.
"We are particularly excited to offer guidance from leading authority Valerjan Romanovski, who is a member of our team and the world record holder for ice submersion."
In addition to its regular services, the Polar Bear Club will also be hosting the International Dipping Championships next year.
The event will bring together cold water therapy enthusiasts from around the world to compete and celebrate the benefits of the practice.
The grand opening of the Polar Bear Club's new headquarters is open to the public, and everyone is welcome to attend.
