Kendal and Lakes Sub Aqua Club #0546

Dive with us!

Safety, good training and an award from Sport England means we can open up diving to more people!

Our target? – to introduce 100 new people to diving in by the end of 2025.

How? – Regular free try dives and an ongoing diver training program subsidised by our Sport England training grant.

We welcome divers from other agencies!

Based on the edge of the Lake District we visit  a variety of sites. Lakes like Coniston and Wastwater, Farne Islands, St Abbs, Sound of Mull, Scapa Flow, Red Sea and many more. If it looks interesting, then we’d like to dive it!

We have a compressor and gas room with Nitrox & Trimix and with a number of experienced instructors and divers, we can help you achieve your diving dreams!

Community Amateur Sports Club Registration

Explorer Paul Rose at the Club Inn 9th September 7.30pm

Brilliant talk by Paul Rose and he even bought us all a drink!  Great advice on getting to work in diving and how to pursue the job of your dreams!

Welfare Officer needed!

We need to appoint a new branch welfare officer, preferably one who is not on the committee – if you would like to help please contact me

The Club Survey

We will be presenting the results of the club survey at The Club Inn on 24th November and you will see that the committee are already taking actions to change what we are doing. Have a look at the program of events opposite and you will see that we have something happening on an almostweekly basis. We have introduced ‘Let’s go diving’ days where we help with the cost of kit hire, diving talks and social get togethers twice a month at the Club Inn and we expanded the pool program to encourage experienced divers to come along.

What was it like to start diving years ago?

Back on the 60s, we had a swimming test which you had to pass before starting your dive course.  Fancy trying it (for fun)?  It was called the ‘A’ Test – come and have a go in the pool!

Extending your diving?

Paul has recently run the Twin Set course and is putting together an oxygen admin course.

The Sport England Boost.

We have now qualified lots of new Ocean Divers (with more finishing their training soon) and will be doing some Sport Diver training in October and November.  The grant period finishes as the year end approaches, but we are now in an enhanced position to carry on with a stronger club.  We still have a try dive target to hit and all members can offer assistance here!

For the autumn and winter months we are increasing our pool sessions to two per month – the 1st and 3rd Wednesday of each month starting NOW!  We also plan to use the Club Inn for ‘Dry Nights’ on the 2nd  & 4th Tuesday of each month – that should be confirmed in a few days.  That means there will be club activities suitable for everyone on almost a weekly basis.
