Its with thanks to support the from Foundation for Children that surf therapy launched for young people in Bristol in September 2020. Ten young people were referred, and as a result have been able to access the first course at this amazing facility. The Wave is the first man made pool in the northern hemisphere to utilise wave garden technology, meaning there were plenty of waves to go around!

The launch was a great success, with so much energy from all involved. The young people arrived anxious, but by the end of the first session it was smiles all round.

Big thank you to all our volunteers for coming along to give their time and support, we could not have asked for a better bunch. We cannot wait to continue with this first course, and continue to offer this mental health intervention to more young people living inland.
