In this session, we are reaching out to our peers nationally, and internationally to learn about what their organisations are doing to develop creative networks and collaborators which empower and inspire skateboarding culture.
We will hear Sandy & Charlie’s individual career journeys, where they started out, and how, by building on community, resilience, and societal change, each of them focuses their work and values across the world to spark imagination.
Both Surf Ghana and SkatePal support young people’s creativity and collaboration, health & wellbeing, connecting communities and opportunities together. SkatePal is a non-profit organisation supporting communities throughout Palestine, promoting the social, health and wellbeing benefits of skateboarding to enhance the lives of local youth. Surf Ghana is a voice of diversity which pushes a narrative of freedom and self-expression creating a counterculture platform for youth. The collective also works to improve physical and mental health.
This event has been co-produced by Kocha Obasi from our Future Producers programme, who will be hosting the talk. Send in your questions via our live social platforms for a chance to have them answered directly by Sandy & Charlie.
