Who we are

Welcome to our underwater wonderland, where the beauty of the ocean's depths comes to life, Disadvantaged Diver is in the process of becoming a registered charity. Founded by Philip Crawford, a highly experienced military and international sports coach with specialist adaptive diving qualifications. Drawing on decades of expertise, our team provides safe, supportive, and life-changing underwater experiences for those who would otherwise never access the transformational power of diving..

Our Mission

We exist to break down barriers and open up the underwater world to everyone, regardless of ability or background. Through personally tailored one-to-one or small group sessions, we help participants build confidence, reconnect with learning, and improve their mental health in a truly inclusive environment.
