We need to say a huge thank you to the management and support crew, all of whom are volunteering their time and are an integral part of the team.
We now need your support. Without UK Sport or Sport England funding, it’s only through the power of the surfing community that we can support this amazing team to take on the world. We’ve got a number of initiatives for you to get involved in and become part of the team.
The Team Crowdfunder is now live! For every £10 you donate, you will be entered into our prize draw, organised by Surfing England. Prize updates will be shared onto socials as they drop. All funds will support the journey to the Championships. The prize draw will be drawn on Wednesday 30th November – get your entries in now! If you would like to add a prize to the draw, please drop Hannah an email to: [email protected]
