Indie Hyde
Meet our 2026 SurFebruary Ambassador, and current caption of Team Newy, 9-year-old Newcastle local, Indie Hyde.
Indie is taking on SurFeb for the 3rd time, in honour of her Grandma Anne, who sadly passed away in 2008 from brain cancer.
Mum Emma says…. "I couldn't be prouder of Indie for taking on SurFebruary as an ambassador and the Team Newy Captain.
She sadly never had the chance to meet her Grandma, who we lost to cancer, which makes the purpose behind her SurFeb journey especially meaningful."
Team Newy has topped the leaderboard for the past 8 years and with Captain Indie on board for 2026 we don’t see that changing any time soon.

Meet our 2024 SurFebruary Ambassador, 21-year-old WA local, Isabella Foster.
This will be Izzie's 2nd year taking on the SurFebruary challenge. “I’m very confident that SurFebruary is something I will continue to participate in, for many years to come. I can’t recommend getting involved enough!”
Xavier Neil
"I love SurFebruary because you get to get in the water every single day and it’s for a good cause. 2025 is my 8th year doing SurFebruary, and my 6th as an official SurFebruary ambassador with Team Newy. Each year I love it more and more."
Richie Lovett
One of the things I really love about SurFebruary is it’s bringing everyone together. It’s bringing communities together, it’s bringing families together. It’s not a burden to go down to the beach every day, or to go for a swim or a surf… or whatever your thing is. This whole initiative is doing good, it’s supporting people, it’s raising funds – but it’s bringing people together. And that’s absolutely priceless
