About Naomi Watson

Profile picture

Having always lived close to the coast, I have always dreamt of being able to ‘ride the waves’, but have let fear get in the way. When the opportunity came up to learn to surf, while raising money for the awesome charity - Healing Waves, I realised it was time to finally step out of my comfort zone!  It’s deffo not as easy, as surfers make it look!! We have got nailed several times, but have managed to laugh about it, and spur each other on. 
 

As a teacher, I have seen first hand the amazing difference that Healing Waves makes to so many children’s lives.  Not only children, but adults alike,  get so much out of their sessions, and being part of the incredible Healing Waves family. 

Please donate whatever you can spare, to support this life-changing charity!

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.
