We Are Just Apes

We are just Apes! Something Mrs Hotch says to me all the time BUT very true. How do babies know how to hold their breath underwater? What is the mammalian reflex response? & why do we share it with Whales? All will become clear in this fascinating presentation from Vic our very own Freediver Instructor.

Project AWARE - Shark Conservation

The bleak truth is – Sharks are in a global decline! Overfishing has reduced many shark populations around the world to levels that threaten their continued existence. Shark numbers have fallen by more than 80% in many cases, and the continued existence of some species is at immediate risk in some regions. Join Ian as he journeys through the amazing world of sharks & shines a light on the efforts that are being taken to preserve these amazing creatures. The presentation and tutorial form part of the theory for the Project AWARE Shark Conservation certification, if you want to add this brilliant speciality to your portfolio contact us after the event for details of how to receive it. If you wish to donate to Project AWARE please send your money via PayPal to simon@stellardivers.co.uk and we will facilitate this. Thank you.
