If you are a Windsurfing School, Club or Shop we would love you to organise an 'event' during National Windsurfing Week. We will then advertise it on our site, help you promote it to your local press and provide you with things like event posters and a press release. Ultimately the week is designed to promote windsurfing, but we appreciate you are running a business so your event should suit your business.

If you are a Windsurfing School

If you are a Windsurfing School you want people to pay for lessons. Maybe you could provide a few lessons for free or at a reduced price as an incentive. If not maybe you could give some money to charity for everyone who takes a lesson during National Windsurfing Week. Or you could chase a new group of people to take lessons (Scouts/Sea-Scouts, local company, local radio station)

If you are a Windsurfing Shop

If you are a Windsurfing Shop you want to sell people windsurfing kit you could organise a demo day (most manufacturers/importers/distributors support the week and would helpyou). Alternatively you could approach the local Windsurfing School and agree a mutual promotion such as 'try windsurfing during National Windsurfing Week and get a discount on any Windsurfing boards or sails'
