About
FIT TO DIVE ltd is a micro-organisation based in the United Kingdom. Founded by Dr Laura Walton, Clinical Psychologist, it exists to help divers towards physical, mental and emotional wellbeing in diving.
We offer education and training for divers to share knowledge about niche topics in diver behaviour. Further research on these topics is needed and we seek to address this gap. For this reason, we reinvest funds raised by courses and training into our research activities - to inform our education aims.
We also offer a limited, specialist service in Diving Psychology to UK divers.
We intend to create space for divers to talk about things that affect all aspects of diver fitness and wellbeing. We are also a small community of divers seeking to motivate and inspire each other to be fit-to-dive.
