New windsurfing centre, Gecko Adventures, is giv- ing everyone the opportu- nity to try out windsurfing for free. Donation boxes will be on site for anyone to make a donation.

There can be so little to do for teenagers locally in many towns, so we thought it would be an idea to introduce the kids


here to windsurfing and see if they like it. We’ve been searching all over Ireland for the perfect conditions which we

We’re delighted to help a project like Foróige that is passion- ate about youth and well- being, as we are ourselves. As an instructor in many places across Europe, I’ve seen teenagers from all walks of life get involved in a fun, yet challenging hobby like windsurfing and have


it completely turn


their lives around for the better.” Foróige has been a force


for youth development and services for over 60 years. From the ages of 10-18, over 50,000 chil- dren around Ireland have been active in the various Youth Projects (such as
