Visit to the wave 8th June 2022

From Brad Rochfort, Surfers not Street Children

When I closed Josh's workshop there were about a dozen surfboards abondoned by a number of surfers for whatever reason. I was unable to reunite them with their owners. The boards were in need of repair. Brad who works with the charity "Surfers not Street Children" in South Africa arranged for the bords to be collected, repaired and eventually with another 200 or so boards sent out to South Africa. Josh was talking about this charity and would have been so happy with what happened with these forgotten boards.


I has so pleased to receive this update from Brad.


Here is a link to their charity>>>>  https://www.surfnotstreets.org/


Opposite is a brilliant video from Brad about his charities work.

Tue, 31 Jan, 20:31 (4 days ago)to me Hi Keith
I hope all is well. 
I just wanted to update you on those boards you donated to Surfers Not Street Children on behalf of Josh.
If  I remember right, it was 11 boards I think? 9 are already in South  Africa having been sent in a container last year with 200+ boards for  the charity. Today I handed over the last two to Tom Hewitt, the  charities founder. These 2 needed a lot of work and therefore missed the  container. He will fly them over to Durban in a few weeks where they  will join the other 9 to be enjoyed by many stoked children whose lives  have been transformed through surfing.
Here is a link to the film we made about The Board Drive which included those boards…

From Clive Padgett, Head Teacher of Yewstock Scool

 "At Yewstock we take the mental health and well-being of our school community very seriously, we recognise that good mental health support for all is vital in ensuring that we provide the best teaching and learning for our students and help to prepare them for success when they leave Yewstock, and also give them the skills and resilience to make the best of opportunities in life.  Thinking of others and caring for others is one of our Yewstock core values, so we were very pleased to be able to support the important work of Phrenix who do so much to help other achieve good mental health. Phrenix hosted us for a fabulous day at 'The Wave' in Bristol where our students experienced surfing for the first time, our young people had really brilliant time and we look forward to supporting the work of Phrenix in the future"
