International Beach Clean up & PADI Project AWARE

International Beach Clean up & PADI Project AWARE

Today ProScuba took part in the international beach clean up. Twelve of us headed over Scalby near Scarborough with wellies on and armed with some bin bags. With the tide out and the wind blowing up a large surf we proceeded along the shore picking litter up as we went. Several bags of litter were collected, so doing our little bit on the world map. This was just the first part of day, i'll add more about the second part later on.

After the beach clean we headed into the Scarborough Sealife Centre to participate in the PADI Project AWARE speciality. This is a dry based course, but is about our oceans and the aquatic world. Euan lead the talks about what we could see and posed and raised valuable enviromental questions. We had a great look at the sea life on disply. Everyone learnt about what this course is all about.

Well done to everyone who particpated and gained this PADI specility. All Profits from this event are going to the Project AWARE foundation charity.

Seems we have a Little Devil amongst us :bandana:
What a great day thanks to Caroline and Euan for the lift even if I didn't get an ice cream

I think I speak for all who attended that we had a great time and was nice to see all the criters in the Sea Life Centre.
It's a great place to visit and gives you an idea of how we have both a good and a bad impact on the world around us.
So next time you are in the area spare an hour or so and pop in to give your support to something that we as divers love to see.
