Please help me with the costs of the 2025 para surf season

Donation protected
Hey my name is Zoe and I'm a para surfer for the English team. I have been a member of Surfing England's squad for 4 years now and have competed on the international and national Para surfing circuit throughout.

I am currently ISA Para Surfing World champion and British number one within my class. I surf with a prosthetic as my front leg which I lost as a result of a car accident in 2015.

I am currently in receipt of a few grants such as Sports aid etc but it is no where near enough to cover the costs of a busy competition season.

My surfing prosthetic alone costs in excess of 10k and needs routine maintenance which costs big time. I need to travel with my fab coach (who rightly deserves to be paid) for her help with competitions, training, and also little things like carrying boards, lifting the heavy stuff and therapeutic work when my body starts to hurt..

In total the cost of a season with entry fees, travel, hotels and equipment on top of the expense of saltwater proof prosthetic legs is astronomical. Any help at all you could send me way would be greatly appreciated and warmly received. Even the littlest amount would be so useful and valued. Many thanks
