About
Connect with the ocean through ongoing activities and events. They have the opportunity to participate in beach clean-ups, coastal conservation projects, and surf sessions, ensuring that they maintain their connexion to the ocean and continue to develop their skills and knowledge.
Since our establishment, City Kids Surfing has had a significant impact on the lives of the children we work with. Through our programme, children have developed strength and fitness, grown in confidence, and discovered a deep connexion with nature. They have found their “ocean tribe” and formed lasting friendships with their fellow Urban Oceaneers.
We have seen firsthand how surfing has empowered these children, allowing them to overcome challenges and develop resilience. The transformative power of the ocean has instilled in them a respect for nature and a desire to protect our marine environment.
We believe that every child should have the opportunity to experience the magic of the ocean, and we can't do it without your support. There are many ways to get involved with City Kids Surfing and help us make a difference in the lives of city kids.
You can donate to our cause, providing funds for equipment, transportation, and ongoing support for our Urban Oceaneers. You can also volunteer your time and skills, whether it's assisting during our road trips, helping with beach clean-ups, or sharing your knowledge of marine conservation.
No matter how big or small, your contribution can make a huge impact on the lives of these children. Visit our website to learn more about how you can get involved and help us connect more city kids with the ocean.
City Kids Surfing was founded by a passionate group of London-based teachers and youth workers who wanted to share their love for the ocean with the next generation. We recognised the lack of opportunities for city kids to experience the transformative power of surfing and decided to take action.
Our team is dedicated to introducing children from inner-city communities to the ocean and providing them with a safe and supportive environment to explore and learn. We believe that the ocean has the ability to inspire and empower children, and we want to give them the chance to discover their own “surfing superpowers” – strength, confidence, connexion, and camaraderie.
Through our tailored programme, we ensure that our Urban Oceaneers learn essential skills such as swimming, beach safety, basic life-saving, and marine conservation. By combining these skills with the exhilaration of surfing, we create a truly transformative experience for the children we work with.
So join us on this journey and help us connect city kids with the ocean. Together, we can make a difference and inspire the next generation of surfers and ocean advocates.
