Wild and Free Therapy CIC is a non-profit organisation formed in February 2022 by three friends who have a shared passion for the sea, surfing, and connecting people through social joy.
“We are delighted that Hendy Foundation has pledged funding to support our work. The grant will enable us to run a six-week Blue Space Therapy programme to support children and young people across Dorset who are struggling with aspects of their physical, mental or emotional health. With this valuable support we will be able to facilitate a safe and nurturing space for participants to learn new surfing and sea-based skills, with a focus on resilience-building and emotional literacy. We are a very small non-profit with an overwhelming number of referrals from children who identify with disability, neurodiversity, or other marginalisation, and our mission is to build our community to reach and support as many in-need families as we are able to. Thank you so much, Hendy Foundation!”
