Are you looking at starting your watersports career and becoming a qualified instructor?
Matt Dilley joined the Leap for Success Scholarship in January 2016 after wanting to do more with his passion for windsurfing.
“I have been windsurfing for five years and I love being outdoors and on the water. I was working as a paint sprayer in a motor body shop since I was 16 and started looking into becoming a windsurfing instructor.
“The Scholarship has been brilliant, you get so much out of it as I am now a windsurfing instructor and dinghy instructor and I get to be on the water every day. Now that my course has finished, I am working in France, the lake at La Rive is so nice and just being on the water every day is great.”
