A project to help young people’s mental health through surfing has won a big cash boost.
The latest post in our blog reports that Wooden Spoon, which describes itself as “the children’s charity of rugby” has announced a £30,000-plus donation to The Wave Project and its innovative surf therapy programmes.
The grant will enable the initiative to continue its work across Dorset, Isle of Wight, Cornwall and in Scotland, harnessing the transformative power of surfing to help young people suffering from mental health challenges build confidence, reduce anxiety and improve their overall well-being.
By providing a fun and supportive environment, the charity empowers participants to develop resilience, cultivate social skills and experience a sense of accomplishment.
