EP.6: Waves for Change, Tim Conibear & Apish Tshetsha - An Ocean for Everyone

In episode 6 we are joined by two great guests by way of Tim Conibear and Finisterre Ambassador Apish T - the two founding fathers of South Africa’s Wave For Change. Waves for Change harnesses the power of surfing to provide psycho-social support to vulnerable children in South Africa in what is fast becoming widely recognised as Surf Therapy.

Over the past decade, their evidence-based surf therapy programme has provided youth with the opportunity to have vital experiences in the sea. Working in communities affected by violence, poverty and conflict, where mental health services are often stigmatised and under-resourced, they identify, train and resource mentors, to open programmes that service the youth of their own home communities.
