SUP For Sanctuary, offers stand up paddleboarding as a form of therapy to those looking to improve their well-being and poor mental health. It is an inspired collaboration between the famous Cornish charity ‘Sea Sanctuary’ and WeSUP Paddleboard Centre in Falmouth, Cornwall. Together, they are conducting the first ever national SUP survey which aims to understand the full benefits of Stand Up Paddleboarding (SUP), especially how it improves people’s level of well-being. The ambition is to formally introduce SUP as an effective and therapeutic method of reducing stress related, poor mental health conditions.
Sea Sanctuary has introduced a series of SUP activities into its current therapy programme. The activities are designed for everyday people who are suffering from various levels of stress related poor mental health. Busy office workers, home carers, bereaved individuals… the list is endless and therefore their services are open to all.
You will almost certainly know someone suffering with stress, depression or some other form of poor mental health. Soon SUP centres across the land will have access to the funds raised to help people access ‘Mindful SUP activities.’ This foundation is a one of a kind in the UK.
