The
British
Diving Safety Group (BDSG) was formed in 2002 to promote safe diving
practices amongst the British sport diving community. Currently chaired
by the RNLI, the group has a broad representation, with all of the UK
diver training agencies, the HSE and the MCA having a seat at the table.
These
organisations regularly meet in order to work towards a common goal; to make diving
safer. By sharing and analysing incident data, devising safety initiatives and
then promoting them to divers, the group has a broad influence on the recreational
diving community.
The
comprehensive nature of the BDSG, reflecting as it does all of the significant
interests in the British sport diving scene means that it is uniquely positioned
to significantly influence diving safety.
