BRAVE volunteers from Warrington could be getting up close and personal with sharks as part of an underwater challenge to raise cash for a local charity.
Deafblind UK is looking for people to take part in the dive at Blue Planet Aquarium on Saturday March 20.
Participants will share a tank with Sand Tiger, Lemon, Nurse and Bamboo Sharks, as well as Southern Stingrays and a whole school of tropical fish found in the Caribbean- and there are no diving cages involved!
No previous diving experience is necessary as participants receive full training and all equipment is provided.
Deafblind UK provide practical support and advice to deafblind people and their families and carers.
Lorraine Densham, Regional Fundraising Co-ordinator said: “We’d love to hear from anyone feeling brave enough to take up this challenge.
“It really is an amazing opportunity for anyone with an interest in sharks to get up close and personal with these creatures.
“The registration fee is £50 and anyone raising £400 sponsorship for the Charity will, in effect, get basic PADI diving training and certificate plus and amazing shark dive for only £50!”
For more details, or an entry form, visit www.deafblind.org.uk or email [email protected] or call Lorraine on 01733 358100.
