POSTPONED - OneWave's 7th Birthday
Coronavirus I Keeping ourselves safe and well
Updated Monday 16th March 2020
Out of caution and concern for the safety of the OneWave community, family and friends, OneWave has made the decision to postpone OneWave's 7th Birthday World Fluro Wave event this Friday 20th March, because of the risks of Coronavirus (COVID-19).
There is a lot of fear and uncertainty right now and a lot of people are isolated, so looking after our mental health is more important than ever. We may not be able to create a World Fluro Wave for mental health at the beach this Friday, but we can create a World Fluro Wave online to show our support.
Thanks to you good people we haven't missed a week of getting fluro for mental health in 7 years - that's 364 weeks of showing up in fluro for the people who need it most. Hard times bring people together, so this Friday lets show people around the world that they are not alone and give them some hope by posting a fluro selfie at home in your brightest attire, with your arms outstretched and tagging @onewaveisallittakes #flurofriday #youarenotalone.

Thank you for everything you do for OneWave and all the people you have helped over the last seven years of fluro. We know this is a stressful time so please take care of your good selves and stay safe. Let me know if you have any questions.
We will let you know as soon as we confirm a new date for the 7th Birthday World Fluro Wave and we will make it the biggest one yet!!
We may not be able to hug right now, but we can still surf and throw shakas :)
Big love.
OneWave Team
Help us turn the beach fluro for mental health by pledging your attendance to our 7th birthday
We want EVERYBODY to know it's OK to not be OK! So we're calling upon everyday legends to pledge their attendance to ONEWAVE's 7th Birthday, where we're creating the world’s biggest wave of everyday humans dressed in fluro to raise awareness of mental health.
What is ONEWAVE? A non-profit surf community raising awareness for mental health through saltwater therapy, surfing and fluro. For the past 7 years, those in need, and those looking to help, have gathered at the Southern end of Bondi Beach donning fluro to talk about mental health issues and share stories effecting those around them. They haven't missed a week! Because mental health comes in waves.
Sometimes ONE WAVE is tall it takes!
