About Barbara Partyka

Profile picture

Having lived by the sea or ocean most of my life, it’s almost unthinkable that the closest I got to surfing was the one time I tried paddle boarding (I did manage to paddle while standing up in the end!).

Surfing was always one of those things I wanted to do but kept putting off for another time. Not anymore.

The growth starts just outside of the comfort zone so this summer I’ll be getting over my discomfort about swimming in the deep open water & making my dream of learning to surf come true by competing in Le Rossignol Estates Jersey White Collar Surfing competition on 20th of August, all while raising funds for an incredible local charity Healing Waves UK.

I couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate my 40th birthday this August!

Fundraising Information

Healing Waves

Healing Waves is a charity based in Jersey Channel Islands. We enable individuals with physical, neurological & mental health challenges to access the ocean in a safe way, to participate in surf, paddle and flowrider sessions.

We offer Ocean Therapy through guided surf, paddle and flow sessions. These water sports are used as a vessel, helping our athletes to gain more self-confidence and communication skills, whilst providing therapy and respite for all.  Water sports can stimulate the ‘stoke’ like feeling and can promote a sense of accomplishment and empowerment in our Athletes, whilst families, friends and carers cheer them on from the side lines.  We encourage loved ones and carers to participate in sessions, helping to strengthen the (often strained) bonds which are vital for healthy relationships.
