Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. I will be Stand Up Paddle Boarding for 7 NIGHTS & 8 DAYS to set a NEW WR for time spent on a SUP (traditional SUP board, no cabin). I will do EVERYTHING on the board without getting off for this time. The purpose of this challenge is to help awareness for water safety and drowning prevention by demonstrating safe practice on a board and raising money for the Charity- ABOVE WATER- The water safety in education charity.

I will PADDLE, EAT & SLEEP on a board for 7 NIGHTS and 8 DAYS, taking everything with me I need to survive for this time. I plan to leave Torquay Harbour at NOON on WORLD DROWNING PREVENTION DAY- 25th JULY.
