We have just appeared on RTE One's main evening news. Last Monday Philip Bromwell, one of Six One news's Reporters came to Garrettstown Beach and filmed and interviewed us for a 2 minute piece that went out on both the 6pm and 9pm News on Thursday July 17th. The piece should be available on RTE.ie from July 18th. Check out local Girl Ailis Ward as she surfs with Jon!

We are now pleased to announce support from The National Maritime College of Ireland. Located in Cork they are the centre for many forms of specialist maritime Training. They have now become the main financial supporter of our efforts. These funds come from an EU supported initiative "Martins". This project includes similar colleges in the UK, Holland and France and it promotes safety training in various forms. Surf 2 Heal is very grateful to Martins & the NMCI for this fantastic support and you can learn more by visiting :
