Our purpose at Live for More is to empower rangatahi/young people to find freedom from their troubled pasts and be inspired to live positive and fulfilling lives. Through our surf therapy programmes, we transform lives – one wave at a time.
Our clients are males, 17-25 years and are often trapped in lifestyles of addiction, mental health and antisocial behaviours. Many have been or are actively involved in the justice system.
Live for More builds strong rapport and healthy, lasting relationships with rangatahi through our surf therapy programmes. Alongside surf therapy, we also provide intensive clinical counselling, practical life navigation skills, mentoring and cultural sessions. All of this is aimed to empower self-belief, confidence, and a positive outlook. With a renewed understanding of life and purpose, as well as their identity, potential and culture, we see rangatahi finding freedom for themselves and their whānau.
