Diving for support
Divers came together at the famous Pinewood Studios Underwater Stage at Iver Heath in Buckinghamshire for a 24-hour fundraising event in aid of Deptherapy. The charity runs tailored scuba-diving programmes for physically or mentally injured UK armed service personnel.
The Middlesex Provincial Grand Family Fete supported the dive, which raised more than £7,500 towards its £10,000 target. Led by Dickie Henderson from Alperton Lodge, No. 5548, the event involved over 60 divers and a dozen support staff. The 1.2 million-litre underwater studio is unique in Europe, and has featured in films, adverts, television programmes and music videos.
