JOIN THE WORLD FLURO WAVE FOR MENTAL HEALTH

OneWave is all it takes!

On Friday, 22 March, OneWave will celebrate our 11th Birthday by creating a World Fluro Wave for mental health, and we would love you to join us!

OneWave communities around the world will dress in our brightest fluro with a simple message - to let anyone facing mental health challenges know they are not alone. 

Whether you create a fluro wave on the beach, in the surf, at school, or in a park, all it takes is two or more people dressed in fluro to create a fluro wave, or you can take a fluro selfie. Every single fluro wave will help paint the world fluro for mental health.

CREATING THE FLURO WAVE IS SUPER EASY:

  • At the beach - You could create a Mexican-style fluro wave on the sand, catch a fluro party wave or take a fluro group photo or selfie.

  • At school/park/lake/gym etc.. You could create a Mexican-style fluro wave or take a fluro group photo or selfie.

No matter where in the World you are for OneWave’s 11th Birthday Fluro Friday on the 22 March, it would be awesome if you could wear something bright and turn your social media fluro for mental health by posting a fluro photo/video and tagging @onewaveisallittakes #flurofriday.

CELEBRATING 11 YEARS OF ONEWAVE

OneWave is a non-profit surf community raising awareness of mental health through a simple recipe…saltwater therapy, surfing and fluro.

We paddled out for our first Fluro Friday event at Bondi in March 2013 to help bring more colour to mental health, and the OneWave community has not missed a week of Fluro Friday since. That’s 574 weeks of showing up rain, hail or shine for the people who need it most.

OneWave has held Fluro Friday events at over 200 beaches across more than 50 countries, raising awareness around mental health, reducing stigma and helping people free the funk. OneWave also runs 'Free the Funk' Programs in schools and workplaces, which have impacted more than 45,000 people.

Thank you for your incredible support, kindness and fluro vibes!
