Children from Motherwell and East London will rub shoulders with some of the world’s best wave riders at the World Surf League competition in Jeffreys Bay this weekend.

“Having surfed a bit myself, I know that the adrenaline one gets from doing the sport is very addictive and I hope the children maintain the level of enthusiasm and take the programme seriously.”

T1/2 Children from EL & Motherwell township were thrilled in the therapeutic Waves for Change Activation taking place at St. Georges beach.
