Sally is the founder of Yonder, the brilliant surf brand and community with a surf school at its heart, and a particular focus on getting more women in the lineup.
“I don’t think people ever ask themselves where there aren’t women in the lineup….it’s a huge conversation that really doesn’t get talked about.”
Sally works hard to explore and combat the issues that keep women out of the sea, including the drop off during motherhood, and she’s helping to build a strong and inclusive surf community in the North East where she’s based.
