Surfing Helps Kids Improve Their Life Chances

Tim Connebere founded the Waves for Changes project in Cape Town, South Africa. Hundreds of kids go along each week to get surfing therapy. Not only is surfing giving them a buzz, it's helping to improve their life chances. Most surfers have experienced trauma, emotional pain and shock caused by very distressing experiences. Tim believes that the concentration needed to surf makes the children's other problems disappear at least for a short time.
