A massive THANK YOU to everyone who took part in this year’s Freedom Paddle – helping to raise much needed funds for Operation Smile in the process. Your efforts raised just over R55 000 for vital cleft surgery.
From seasoned paddlers to first-timers, your energy, determination, and spirit were truly awe-inspiring. Paddling around the iconic Robben Island is no small feat! Every stroke reflected determination, unity, and the true meaning of Freedom Day.
Special thanks to Prescient_SA for their generous donation, and to Treble Group SA for their incredible support. To all participants, supporters, organisers, and partners – thank you for showing up, pushing limits, and being part of something bigger than just a race. Here’s to celebrating freedom, community, and making every paddle count.
