Branches and Centres , all together now
BSAC ’ S BRANCH + CENTRE Partnership Scheme has held its first ‘ meet-and-greet ’ session , with more information sessions now set to follow .
The initiative has been designed to support resource-stretched clubs to grow their membership , while offering trainees a choice in how they learn to dive .
In the first information session , Berkshire-based Divecrew hosted a barbecue at their Crowthorne dive centre for members from eight clubs taking part in the scheme . The clubs spent their time getting to know the Divecrew team and discussing how the initiative will help their own training and potential new member recruitment .
Similar meet-and-greet sessions with other centre partners , DM Scuba and RoHo are scheduled for October .
So far , seven centres are participating in the scheme , with more around the country set to come on board . Over 50 BSAC clubs are also taking part , with interest from many other clubs looking for additional ways to support their trainees and members .
Meanwhile , as the Autumn training season starts , the first Ocean Diver trainees are starting to come through the Branch + Centre Partnership Scheme .
Salisbury Civil Service Club , which has partnered with Bristol-based DM Scuba , said the initiative has been a real boost to their new Ocean Diver training .
“ We ' re off to a flying start !" Salisbury ' s Diving Officer ,
Chris Ingham , said . " Our two Ocean Diver trainees went Meet and Greet through the pool session ' boot camp ' organised by Paul
BBQ at Divecrew at DM Scuba and it ' s gone brilliantly . Alex and George came back full of enthusiasm , having really enjoyed it and with all their pool stuff signed off .
“ We ' re now streets ahead of where we would be without the partnership , and it ' s a real pleasure working with DM Scuba .”
