UK Based Dive Centre Offering Free Scuba Taster Sessions For Disabled People

UK based dive centre 3D Diving Services C.I.C. are offering free scuba “taster sessions” which will be specifically aimed at people who have a disability and have previously thought that this may prevent them from scuba diving on Friday 13th September at Culverhay pool, Rush Hill, Bath.
3D Diving Services C.I.C. is a social enterprise scheme set up to offer scuba diving courses for people who are physically challenged or mentally impaired.
DDI (Disabled Divers International) Instructor, Alex Slade, with over 20 years experience teaching diving leads the team at Culverhay Pool in Bath along with qualified and experienced PADI Instructors and Divemasters from The Dive Zone in Melksham.
DDI courses are running in conjunction with PADI, using PADI course materials and adhering to PADI standards. The DDI certification uses adaptive diving techniques in order to meet PADI standards and the DDI qualification will reflect the level of assistance the diver requires in the water.
For amputees, the loss of a limb can mean loss of movement on land and cumbersome equipment but underwater you regain freedom of movement, weightlessness and the opportunity to move in 3 dimensions. For someone suffering from post traumatic stress disorder, for example, the 100% concentration required when learning to dive can leave no room for thought and so give some respite from the condition.
It is important to book in advance as numbers are limited and 3D Diving will need to discuss people’s handicap with them and send a medical statement form to be signed before the event.
For more information or to book, please contact Mark on +44(0)1225 791440 or Alex on +44 (0)7886 284553 or e-mail info@thedivezone.co.uk.

Scubaverse Welcomes Jacob Guy to the Underwater Photography Team

We’re thrilled to announce the final addition to our new Scubaverse Underwater Photography Team: multi-award-winning underwater filmmaker and photographer Jacob Guy.
Like Shannon Moran, who we announced as one of our new underwater photography team members yesterday, Jacob represents the next generation of underwater image-makers, bringing fresh energy and a seriously impressive set of credentials to the team. A Fourth Element ambassador, teacher at The Underwater Club, and co-founder of 71%, Jacob is passionate about conservation and natural history storytelling, using his lens to inspire a deeper connection to the ocean.
Jacob has filmed and self-produced award-winning documentaries and worked as a photo and video pro in Lembeh and on liveaboards throughout Indonesia. Most recently, he was named Young Ocean Photographer of the Year, further cementing his reputation as one of the most exciting emerging talents in underwater media today.
You may already be familiar with his compelling work across social media, where he shares his ocean adventures via @JacobGuy.media.
“I’m really excited to be joining the team at Scubaverse,” said Jacob.
“And I couldn’t be happier to have him onboard,” said Scubaverse founder, Dave Alexander. “Jacob is part of a bold new wave of underwater storytellers—and I’m delighted that Scubaverse can be part of his journey as he continues to make waves in the world of diving and underwater photography.”
We can’t wait to share with you what our new underwater photography team cook up—there’s a lot of exciting stuff on the horizon, so stay tuned!
