Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
Phrenix.org charity was set up in memory of Josh who took his own life early in 2020 at the age of 29. Josh was a surfer and a surfboard maker.
So, after the success earlier this year of taking a group of students from Yewstock School to The Wave, all donations from this campaign will be used to finance an additional school to take another 16 children from a South West SEN school to The Wave again for a day to introduce them to surfing.
After their visit in the summer, The Wave very generously offered Yewstock School another visit for another 16 students which is fantastic as it means that donations this past year have facilitated 32 surfing lessons for disadvantaged children.
The instructors are extremely experienced and gave the youngsters one to one help in the water where needed.
The benefits of the experience are clear to see in the photos and report of the day on the website phrenix.org.
The headmaster from Yewstock School quoted "we were very pleased to be able to support the important work of Phrenix who do so much to help others achieve good mental health".
