Disabled surfers return to Umina Beach

Following a successful event at Umina Beach in February, Disabled Surfers Central Coast will hold a “Smiles on Dials” event in March.

12 February 2025

 

THE “Smiles on Dials” event will be held at Umina Beach on Saturday, 1 March 2025. But, just as before, they still need large volunteer numbers to make the surfing experience safe and enjoyable.

 

Interested volunteers are asked to register online via Humanitix prior to the event so that the organisers know how many surfers they can accept. Volunteers will also be accepted on the day.

 

Volunteers do not need to know how to surf, although water skills are highly valued. A water refill station and a rash shirt will be provided on the day, but volunteers are encouraged to bring their own wetsuits. A sausage sizzle will complete the festivities.

 

Volunteering at a ‘Smiles on Dials’ event consists of helping participants to and from the beach, assisting them in and out of the water and helping to set up and clean up. A sausage sizzle is provided and smiles are always encouraged!
