Who we help - The Wave Project Scotland
an award-winning charity that uses surfing to reduce anxiety and increase confidence and social interaction amongst young people with complex needs many of whom are from deprived backgrounds
We have been delighted to support this amazing charity and even happier we have been able to get along and visit them. They offer Surf Therapy to support and improve the mental health of children and young people in our local community.
Thanks to our supporters, we have previously funded a six week programme of Surf Therapy for eight young people. As well as had them join our sports challenge campaign and coming in second place.
We were lucky enough to meet one of the young people who attended the programme. She was so honest and open and said without The Wave Project she wouldnt be here. It has saved her, gave her a sense of belonging and after many years finally fits in and and feels comfortable within herself.
An inspiring young lady and an honour to be able to meet and support such a wonderful group!
