BSAC offering free resources for try dive events and open nights
Is your BSAC club planning try dives over the coming months as part of your new member recruitment drive? Or are you looking to invite other agency divers to visit your club and would like something to give them?
Then BSAC can help. They have high quality Try Dive and Go Dive information packs which you can order for free …and which can help you make a real impact with your prospect new members.
Try Dives are a tried and tested way of getting potential new Ocean Divers in the water for the first time and a great try dive experience can really spark an interest in scuba that can last a lifetime.
BSAC’s Try Dive packs are a very handy A5 size and include BSAC Go Diving DVD plus plenty of room for you to insert your own information about your club, how they can join and what they should do next.
As well as the free Try Dive packs, BSAC also has a very useful ‘How to run a successful Try Dive’ guide which is packed with great advice and tips on running a try dive event to remember.
A welcome for other divers – for potential new members who have already trained with another agency and are now looking for a club to dive regularly with, BSAC’s Go Dive packs can help ‘seal the deal’ when they visit your branch. The same format as the Try Dive packs, they are a great way to ensure your potential new member has all the information they need about joining your club.
You can order your free Try Dive and Go Dive packs online or call the Membership Team on 0151 350 6201.
BSAC also has a great range of supporting promotional material including Try Dive posters and leaflets which you can also order for free. And if your event is imminent, don’t worry – give BSAC a call and tell them more about your event and they will do their best to dispatch your order the same day.

Dive Worldwide Announces Bite-Back as its Charity of the Year
Over the next 12 months, specialist scuba holiday company Dive Worldwide will be supporting Bite-Back Shark & Marine Conservation with donations collected from client bookings to any one of its stunning dive destinations around the world. The independently-owned operator expects to raise £3000 for the UK charity.
Manager at Dive Worldwide, Phil North, said: “We’re especially excited to work with Bite-Back and support its intelligent, creative and results-driven campaigns to end the UK trade in shark products and prompt a change in attitudes to the ocean’s most maligned inhabitant.”
Bite-Back is running campaigns to hold the media to account on the way it reports shark news along with a brand new nationwide education programme. Last year the charity was credited for spearheading a UK ban on the import and export of shark fins.
Campaign director at Bite-Back, Graham Buckingham, said: “We’re enormously grateful to Dive Worldwide for choosing to support Bite-Back. The company’s commitment to conservation helps set it apart from other tour operators and we’re certain its clients admire and respect that policy. For us, the affiliation is huge and helps us look to the future with confidence we can deliver against key conservation programmes.”
To launch the fundraising initiative, Phil North presented Graham Buckingham with a cheque for £1,000.
Visit Dive Worldwide to discover its diverse range of international scuba adventures and visit Bite-Back to learn more about the charity’s campaigns.
