A Real-World Project: The Hoodie They Deserved.

SHRED UNION™ Mission

SHRED UNION™ exists to bring people together through the power of snowboarding — to connect, progress, and belong.

We are more than just a club or a ride crew. We’re a platform for every person — regardless of background, ability, income, or identity — to stand tall on the mountain and feel like they matter.

We believe the mountain should never be exclusive. No gatekeeping. No elitism. No barriers.

Our mission is rooted in:

• 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Community: Building strong, diverse connections on and off the slopes
• 📈 Progression: Helping each rider grow, with confidence, creativity, and support
• 🧠 Wellbeing: Mental and physical health are part of the ride
• 🔁 Inclusion: Challenging inequality and amplifying every voice
• 🎒 Access for All: Because adventure shouldn’t depend on your postcode or your wallet

The 2024–25 academic year is wrapped — but there's still time to shape 2025–26. Want in? Here's how…

🎓 The Hoodie They Deserve Academic Year 2025-26

Every year, school leavers proudly wear their leavers hoodie — a symbol of memory and identity. But not every kid gets one. Sometimes it’s cost. Sometimes it’s just being forgotten.

We’re changing that.

Because no one should leave school feeling invisible. It’s not about clothing. It’s about belonging.

✊ Call to All Grown-Ups

We’re inviting adults, riders, teachers, and allies across the UK:

Start your own local Hoodie Project.

Talk to your school. Fundraise if you can. One hoodie can remind a child that they’re seen and celebrated.

Let’s make kindness go viral, town by town, school by school, slope by slope.

SHRED UNION™ is not just about snowboarding. It’s about showing up. Riding together. Lifting each other.
