Charities
We have chosen to support UNICEF due to the fantastic work they do throughout Africa and also due to personal connections with the organisation.
As this is a surfing trip it seemed entirely appropriate that SurfAid be involved - Surfers giving help back to the to some of the poverty stricken areas where they enjoy surfing is something close to the hearts of all team members.
