Clearing the waters: DiveInclusive FAQ
Will my child be safe?
All courses will be carried out in a swimming pool and run by experienced instructors.
What is the minimum eligible age?
The minimum age is 8 and the maximum age is 16.
Why is it limited to ethnic minority kids?
At DiveInclusive, we’re committed to promoting diversity and inclusion within the scuba diving community. We recognise that ethnic minority groups are underrepresented in the sport, and we aim to address this imbalance by providing incentivised opportunities to children from these backgrounds. By focusing on ethnic minority kids, we strive to create a more inclusive and representative environment in scuba diving, fostering a sense of belonging and empowerment for all participants
What if my child is not from an ethnic minority background?
While DiveInclusive is specifically designed to provide free scuba diving opportunities to children from ethnic minority backgrounds, we still want to encourage all children to explore the exciting world of scuba diving. If your child does not meet the criteria for our free program, we recommend our trusted partner, JC Scuba; They facilitate our sessions/courses & offer excellent scuba diving courses for children of all backgrounds for a fee.
For more information about their courses, schedules, and fees, you can contact JC Scuba directly at info@jcscuba.net or visit their website at www.jcscuba.net.
