The Ulster Transport Museum and NI Science Festival presents Local Waves, a four-part podcast series hosted by Curator of Transport and Industry, Clare Ablett, interviewing local people from across Northern Ireland who interact with the sea in different ways to learn about their 'local waves' and for insight into how water-based activities can help to improve mental health and establish connections with the sea. This series aims to encourage people of all abilities to engage with the water on a sensory level, using sound as a way of making our local waves more accessible to everyone. Stay tuned at the end of each podcast to relax and listen to the sounds of waves from around our coastline.
In episode 2, Clare speaks to Iain McCarthy, owner of SupHubNI, a paddleboarding school based around the North Down coast. Iain explains his passion for the sport of paddleboarding, how this led him to set up his own school, and some top tips for anyone looking to take up the sport.
