Go-Dive under new ownership
Leading UK Dive Store Go-Dive is now under new ownership. Mark James (owner of MSDS Marine) and James Parsons (current shop manager employed at Go-Dive) have formed a partnership and taken over the ownership and running of the shop, online sales and training.
MSDS Marine are a commercial dive company who bring a wealth of specialist knowledge to the business. James will continue to provide a friendly face in the shop and provide his in-depth knowledge gained from 15 years of Go-Dive experience to ensure customers can buy with confidence. Jon will continue to offer the high standard of equipment servicing that customers have come to expect. The team will also be joined by Alison at the beginning of June.
Expect to see lots of new lines for sale in the coming months and some exciting discounts and promotions. Mark and James would like to invite all customers, old and new, to come and say hello in the shop on Sunday 3rd June, 11am -3pm, when there will be some great promotions to be had. They will be offering free air fills on the day as well as having a free BBQ (weather dependant!).
Team Go-Dive would like to thank Mark Hudson, the previous owner, for giving the new team this opportunity. He has spent the last 25 years building up a successful brand and they hope to be able to continue to build on the foundations he has laid. Everyone wishes Mark well in his future endeavours!

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.
