🌊 Volunteers Needed – Help Young People Thrive Through Surfing! 🌊

Hi everyone! My name is Davide, and I’ve been a surf enthusiast and coach for the past 15 years. Three years ago, I joined The Wave Project Dunbar because I believe in making a real difference in our local community.

With the help of an amazing team of volunteers, I run our Surf Club, a safe, fun, and inclusive space for young people and children.
After completing our 6-week Surf Therapy program, participants can continue attending Surf Club right up until the age of 21.

Surf Club is where we see the long-lasting impact of surf therapy. It’s where we watch caterpillars turn into butterflies, growing in confidence, spreading their wings, and fly. 🦋

We run sessions every week at Belhaven, on both weekdays and weekends, throughout the year. Most sessions take place in the water, with some indoor activities during the winter months.

Right now, we’re looking for more volunteers to join our team. Volunteering is a fantastic way to meet new people, learn new skills, and become part of a supportive community while helping young people reach their full potential.

You do not need any surfing experience. We provide all the training, support, and equipment you need to get involved and get in the water.

If you, or someone you know, would like to make a difference in a young person’s life, please get in touch. We’d love to hear from you!

REST OF JUNE & JULY ALMOST FULLY BOOKED 👌🤗
Usually July is my quietest month so very grateful for the busy month ahead 😃🫶😃

Your spine is designed to do two important things: provide stability and allow movement...

While yoga is often used to improve flexibility and mobility, the spine’s first job is to support and stabilise the body. Building strength and stability through the core helps protect the lower back, improve movement, and allows the body to better handle everyday stress and activity...

In my 1-2-1 sessions at BackFit, we work with your body — not against it!
Together, we identify strengths, weaknesses, restrictions, and movement patterns so we can create a personalised approach that helps you move more freely, build strength, and work towards living with less pain...👌💪

Every session is tailored to you and may include a mix of Pilates, yoga-based movement, and sports massage techniques to help release tension, improve mobility, and support long-term results...💪😃
This isn’t about pushing through pain — it’s about understanding your body, building confidence in movement, and creating lasting change...🫶

Sometimes we need the reminder:
Monday thoughts 😃🤗

“You worry way too much for someone who always figures it out.”

If you're carrying stress, tension, or persistent aches and pains, remember that your body and mind deserve support, not criticism...🤗

At BackFit Health & Wellbeing, I help people reduce pain, build strength, improve confidence, and reconnect with movement through Pilates, sports massage, and mental health exercise coaching...❤️💙

You've got through 100% of your difficult days so far. 💜

The hairs are standing up on the back of my neck!! God that atmosphere looks and sounds out of this world! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🥃👌

This is your sign to slow down and savour the moments.
Low tide, fresh sea air, a happy golden retriever puppy, and the Saltire flying high before Scotland's match tonight. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
Sometimes wellbeing looks like muddy paws, beach walks, and being fully present.
⚽ Puppy tired. Match ready...🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🥃
Come on Scotland! You've got this!! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💙🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

🌧️ Scottish summer 🤣🐾

When your new mummy is outdoorsy, there are no rain checks... literally! ☔🐶

This wee adventurer was looking forward to todays galavant! 🤣 Then the hail started! Woops! 🤗👌🐶🙄

Getting outside and moving your body isn't just for the sunny days! Although they are fab! 👌😃

Fresh air, a change of scenery, and a gentle walk can do wonders for both physical and mental wellbeing...🫶

We often wait for the "perfect" conditions to exercise, but consistency beats perfection every time. Whether it's a quick walk around the block, a stroll through the park, or getting muddy with your four-legged friend, every bit of movement counts...💪🚶‍♀️🧘‍♀️

✅ Boosts mood
✅ Supports heart health
✅ Improves mobility
✅ Reduces stress
✅ Gives you (and yer dug!) a healthy dose of fresh air...😃👌

Pop on yer waterproofs, embrace the elements, and get moving regardless...😃👌

You might even enjoy it! 🌦️💪

There's no such thing as bad weather... just inappropriate clothing! 😉

Having 3 dogs is honestly one of the best things for me...🐶🐶🐶

They fill my heart with so much love, and now that the kids have grown up, they fill my empty nest too. They give me purpose, companionship, and plenty of reasons to smile every day...🤗👌

One thing I especially love is that they get me out into nature and keep me moving. Something that's so good for both body and mind...🤗🐶🤗

Getting out in nature can:
🍃 Reduce stress and anxiety
🌿 Boost your mood and mental wellbeing
☀️ Increase vitamin D levels
🚶‍♀️ Improve fitness and mobility
💚 Lower blood pressure
🌸 Encourage mindfulness and gratitude
🐾 Strengthen the bond with your dogs
😌 Bring a sense of calm and perspective

After all my gallivants abroad last year, this year's holiday budget has been invested in something I can enjoy with my dogs instead. Long nature walks for them and peaceful rest for me in one of my favourite happy places...🌳🌳🌳

And if I'm honest, it's a lot less stressful than airport delays! 🤗🙄🛩🌍

Sometimes the best adventures aren't the ones that take us far away — they're the ones that bring us closer to what matters most. 🐾💚

"My dogs may not know it, but they rescue me every day." 🐾❤️
