Meet our Volunteers.
Our Community Interest Company has a team of dedicated volunteers who support the delivery of the programme. We are currently seeking volunteers for several roles within the programme. If you are interested in becoming a volunteer, then please get in touch.
Meet our Independent Academic Team.
Academic evidence and research has always been at the core of what we do. Any development to our model has sought to deliver the strongest possible outcomes for participants and enhance the service they can deliver to their own organisation.
This remains true as we expand our service to private clients, again working with academics and experts to develop every aspect of the programme. Our surf therapy programme continues feature in various projects at numerous universities and the two PhD students are completing a detailed and independent analysis of the model to support optimum future development.
If you feel could help with academic study of an area of our programme, and are interested in supporting us or would like to fund some research, please get in touch.
