Joe Way Paddle For Life 2025
Newquay’s Joe Way paddle for life charity event returns after a break of 5 years and is ready to spread some colour and fun across the harbour this summer!
Joe Way was born with a rare genetic condition called Angelman’s Syndrome and died on the 7th May 2008 aged 4. In the September after Joe passed away, Newquay lifeguards held the Joe Way memorial paddle, which started the Joe Way Paddle for Life in 2008.
After 11 annual ‘Paddles’ and nearly 100 other fundraising events, the team had raised over £180,000 for more than 20 different charities. With Covid holding off the 2020 event and the Way family dealing with another serious family illness, the event has not been revived until now.
