In-water Volunteer

• Inclusive Surfing Scotland

• VO100232

Inclusive Surfing Scotland is a new charity that delivers surfing experiences to children and adults with disabilities that restrict their access to the waves. We are recruiting in-water volunteers to support our surfers in the water, helping to push them into waves, catch them in the shallows and provide support and encouragement throughout. All volunteers will complete our in-house training (an online induction, followed by in-water training) and will be PVG checked. Help make our surfers experience in the waves unforgettable!

Experience required

You do not have to be a surfer to volunteer with Inclusive Surfing Scotland! However you must be confident in the water, have a positive and supportive attitude and be keen to work with our surfers.
