Where can I park for the theory training?

Croyde Village Hall has a carpark immediately behind it, run by North Devon Council. £15 to park all day. It takes approximately 15 minutes to walk from there to the surf school: Surf South West, EX33 1NZ.

Where can I park for the sea training?

You could leave your car at the Village Hall in the centre of Croyde, or to avoid the 15 minute walk there is carparking at Ruda overflow car park (a field at the top of Ruda site, up past the reception) that is free for Wave Project volunteers and is 5 minutes walk from Surf South West, EX33 1NZ.

What do I need to bring?

1. Warm clothes (the hall can be chilly, so layer up). 2. Keep Cup – we’ll provide tea and coffee. 3. Packed lunch 4. Cold water kit (wetsuit/boots/gloves as necessary)

What should I wear for the sea training?

Please wear a full length wetsuit. You can also wear wetsuit boots/gloves and/or a hood if you feel more comfortable doing so. If you need to borrow a wetsuit from the surf school then let Jaz know on the day.

Surf Mentor Training Tickets, Saturday, Mar 7 from 9:45 am to 4 pm

Overview

Want to help with our incredible evidence backed Surf Therapy organisation? Confident in waist deep water? Good at high 5's? You're in!

Right now, 1 in 5 children in the UK are struggling with their mental health, and 60% aren’t supported by the NHS. Surf Therapy offers a lifeline, helping young people rebuild trust, resilience and self-esteem.

At The Wave Project we are recruiting new Surf Mentors to help us deliver our life-changing Surf Therapy sessions in North Devon. You don't need to be a surfer or have huge experience of working with children and young people to get involved!

Our thorough training, including both 'dry side' theory and practical skills in the water will help you have all the tools you need ready for our Surf Therapy sessions, which we deliver in conjunction with our partner surf schools: Surf South West in Croyde and Westward Waves in Westward Ho!

You will also need to complete a 1.5 hour online training with us, and a DBS check.
