Calling all dive ClubsIn charge of organising the next holiday for your club? Please contact Sarah if you'd like us to help arrange a special trip for you all.Meet the TeamNewS:Helen learned to dive while participating in a marine conservation project in Fiji during university. Backpacking around the world after completing a degree in Tourism, Helen travelled the globe, gained her instructor's licence, and taught diving in the Great Barrier Reef, the Philippines, Palau and the Caribbean. Combining her twin loves of diving and travelling at Dive Worldwide, she has since dived in many more destinations. Kirsteen fi rst experienced the underwater world on the Great Barrier Reef. At that time a poor backpacker, she didn't have the funds to complete her PADI Open Water course so on her return to the UK she braved the chilly waters of Brixham in December and duly qualifi ed. Since then she has dived in warmer waters, including Thailand and the Cayman Islands. Her favourite destination of all time is Kenya. Sarah grew up in Indonesia and her sixteenth birthday present was a PADI Open Water course. Since then she has spent time underwater in the Caribbean, Middle East, Indian Ocean, South East Asia and Australia. Sarah enjoys taking photos but admits that she ought to sign up to a course so that she's ready when she fi nally encounters the elusive whale shark! Sarah updates our blog, Twitter and Facebook.
