This was a fantastic course. Very informative and the hands on training really helped me to understand how to act in a real case scenario. BDMLR are also extremely supportive and able to answer any questions or concerns
Jess
It is a comprehensive and in-depth course with fantastic practical activities (just pack a decent wet suit!). I thoroughly enjoyed the day and it served as a great insight into the work that British Divers do. I am now able to attend call-outs and help save lives!
