In the great tradition of UK sport, Clidive is run by a committee of volunteers. Members are either elected at the Annual General Meeting (AGM) or appointed to specific – and sometimes temporary – posts by the committee itself. We meet over Zoom every six weeks.

No member is allowed to stay in post longer than three years. This shares the work and allows more club members to gain experience of running what is effectively a small, not-for-profit business.

The 2024 Committee

Elaine
Chair
Makes sure the committee focuses on achieving what it set out to do at the beginning of the year and maintains the club's ethos and values. Contact Elaine if you have any concerns about the club or ideas to improve it.

Amanda
Secretary
Organises the committee meetings, writes the minutes and keeps the committee action log up to date. She also organises the AGM. Contact Amanda if you have a question about the committee or something you want us to discuss.

Gillian
Diving Officer
Responsible for putting together Clidive's busy diving programme, supporting the Dive Managers who organise the different trips and ensuring our diving is conducted in line with BSAC's safe diving practices. Contact Gillian if you have a diving-related question, or if you would like to suggest or, better still, organise a club trip.

Chris
Treasurer + Instructor Training
Responsible for the money we collect and spend and reporting on whether we are financially sound. Takes a keen interest in making sure the individual trip accounts are accurate and is always happy to help struggling Money Managers. Chris also oversees our enthusiastic team of assistant dive instructors and ensure they get the support they need to pass the BSAC instructor exams. Contact Chris if you're interested in becoming an instructor (or if you have a financial query).

Fiona
Membership Officer
Responds to queries from potential members, registers new ones and keeps our records up to date. Contact Fiona if you have a question about your membership, want to change your details or know somebody interested in joining the club.

Nick
Equipment Officer
Responsible for the club's dive kit (but not the boats or the van) and making sure it's kept in good working order. Manages our small but perfectly formed kit cupboard and the team of volunteers who run it on Thursday evenings. Contact Nick if you discover a problem with club kit or want to become a kit cupboard volunteer.

Debbie
Training Officer
Responsible for a rolling programme of Try Dives and our Ocean Diver and Sports Diver training. She also fields general training queries and organises on-demand refresher sessions for members. Contact Debbie if you want to practise or refresh your skills with the help of an instructor, or if you know somebody interested in learning to dive.

Nick
Webmaster + DL/AD Training

Steve
Bo'sun (Boats Officer)
Responsible for making sure the boats are well maintained and are being looked after properly on trips. Contact Steve if you've spotted something that needs fixing or you'd like to know more about our beautiful RIBs and would like to help out occasionally with keeping them in tip-top condition.
