We are also looking to offer experience days for water based sports such as Sailing, Wind Surfing and Scuba Diving. By taking an active part in other activities it is hoped that our members can have a better understanding of the  safety aspects of the relevant sport so this can help reinforce their personal knowledge and skills.  If your club or organisation can help then please let us know

If you  might be interested in participating or require more information then please contact us
