About Iain Craig

Profile picture

Hello, and thanks for visiting this page. My name is Iain, I'm 27 years old from Inverness in the Scottish Highlands, and I recently moved my life south to the largest Channel Isle - Jersey. I'll keep this short and sweet!

Since arriving here I have heard endless praise for Healing Waves - a fantastic local charity providing watersports opportunities for individuals with physical, neurological & mental health challenges, having a tremendous impact on their lives and the wider community.

As a physiotherapist myself, I fully advocate this initiative and will be joining the lineup at the Jersey White Collar Surfing Competition 2023 in a mammoth fundraising effort for Healing Waves. Alongside up to 32 other surfing newbies, we will be training hard over the next 12 weeks (suffering countless wipeouts) ahead of showtime on the 12th August at the Watersplash!

We would be extremely grateful if you could support us by donating whatever you can for this great cause, or come on down to watch on the day and join in the Surf Fest fun.

Thanks!

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.
