The Scuba Trust was established in 1996. We train new and returning divers with disabilities to Scuba dive. Training takes place once a month in Ascot. Divers are trained, with the help of qualified experienced instructors, to international standards (PADI and BSAC). We accept a diverse range of disabilities including paraplegics, quadraplegics, vision impaired, hearing impaired and those with autism.
We organise at least two diving trips each year. In 2016 we visited Oman and Egypt. In 2017 we have booked for Mexico and Egypt.
Scuba training is said to increase confidence, offer freedom of movement in three dimensions and some members experience pain relief.
Sessions usually cost £25 inclusive of Instruction and equipment.
