WELLINGTON and Taunton Sub Aqua Club is giving people a feel for life underwater.

They are holding 'Come and Try It' taster sessions on Friday evenings during January and February as part of a drive to recruit new members.

The idea is to allow people to try the sport in a swimming pool before committing themselves to the taking the plunge with a full-blown course.

For anyone bitten by the diving bug, the next fast track learn-to-dive course is being run on the weekend of February 14 and 15 in Taunton.

Regular training courses take place throughout the year and the club can train from complete beginner to instructor.

Anyone is interested in a taster session or learning to dive should call Helen Beer free on 0808-1567005 for more information or to book a place.
