Help Joseph Recover & Get Back on His Feet (Literally!)

Hey everyone,

I never thought I’d be writing one of these, but here we are.

Earlier this month, I had a serious kitesurfing accident that left me with a broken femur. After surgery, I’ve been told I’ll be off my feet and out of work for at least 6–8 weeks.

As many of you know, I’m self-employed and work a physical job — so no work means no income. I’ve still got my usual outgoings like my mortgage, bills, and day-to-day living costs, and with no way to earn right now, I’m reaching out for a bit of support to get me through this unexpected time.

I’ve always done my best to stay independent and push through, but sometimes life throws a curveball, and I’ve realised it’s okay to ask for help.

The goal I’ve set is to help cover essentials over the next couple of months while I recover properly. Any contribution — big or small — would mean the world, and will go directly toward helping me stay afloat until I’m back on my feet (literally!) and back on the tools and water again. Even just sharing this would be a massive help.

If I’m lucky enough to recover earlier than expected and there are funds left over, the remainder will be donated to the Air Ambulance service — a cause close to many of us in action sports and were present at the time of accident in this case.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read and for any support — it genuinely means more than you know.

Much love,

Joseph ✌️
