COPING FESTIVAL 2022

SATURDAY 27TH AUGUST

SKATING | CREATING | WELLBEING

Coping Festival brings together our community to celebrate the incredible organisations that are improving wellbeing in our society. We believe that by sharing our own stories and opening conversations we can help each other through the challenges of life. Coping is able to direct and connect us to those organisations that are best placed to help and guide us. This year Coping will be raising funds for the excellent charities Ben Raemers Foundation & 42nd Street.

Big thanks to our main event sponsors this year, Oakley, Stance, Fearless Adventures & Cyber Security Specialists. Also to the generosity of some of our other event sponsors; Skatehut, Nells Pizza, Tech Deck.

See below for the incredible organisations involved this year and what they will be doing.
