Chillington Divers Expansion to Penkridge.

Chillington Divers committee win lottery funding to expand to another night at Penkridge leisure centre where we will be teaching snorkelling to children who may find the late night of Tuesday too late as a school night. Soon to be announced, it is hoped that we will be able to use a Wednesday evening from 7.30pm til 9.30pm where we will be able to teach snorkelling. Contact Penkridge leisure centre for further details on 01785 714152 or Martin Hammond, the Training Officer on the contact us page.

If you can swim, then you can snorkel. Chillington Divers encourages younger members of the community to come and improve their swimming skills and learn to snorkel dive. Snorkelling improves and maintains personal fitness and teaches new skills highly relevant to any future scuba training. Chillington Divers uses the BSAC syllabus and provides a full program of snorkel training for its members. You can also get badges and certificates to stand out from the crowd and show your mates at school. (See the training page for the current program).

All of the above photographs were taken on an open water snorkeling trip at Stoney Cove.
