Westhoughton Sub Aqua Club Ukraine Donation

Waves Shape

Westhoughton Sub Aqua Club (WSAC) are a SCUBA diving and training club based at Westhoughton Leisure Centre, BL5 3BZ, they have taken an interest in the conflict in the Ukraine and early in 2022 they sent a consignment of sleeping bags to the Ukraine to help the defenders. Towards the end of 2022 they felt that another effort was needed and after speaking to someone who had been to Poland and the Ukraine, they realised that medical aid was in short supply, so they raised funds to buy a box of military grade trauma dressings and sent these to the Ukraine with a note from WSAC. It was assumed that they would not hear anything more and were very surprised to get two photograph messages back from the Ukraine, from a front-line soldier and doctors and paramedics thanking WSAC for the donation and sending best wishes to the membership.

Westhoughton Sub Aqua Club run their start of the year SCUBA course very soon, and are now running ‘try-a-dive’ evenings every Thursday from 8:30pm, where you can try out one of the club’s SCUBA kits in the pool with an experienced diver/instructor.
