    Can anyone recommend a diving school around Swindon. i am looking to progress to DiveMaster so ideally need to be able to instruct to that level rather than chop and changing clubs

    As long as you don't go to the one I went with in Salisbury - he put me in a kids BC as he didn't have any adult ones, stuck a tank on my back and down I went. Only I couldn't surface as even fully inflated the kids BC couldn't support the weight of the tank and me. Put me off for life being stuck at the bottom of a swimming pool! ;D Never attempted it since and never will!
