Diver medic

As an international (Diving) organisation you can still do so much good work, but without publicity many will not be able to enjoy the fantastic work that all the IAHD instructors put into people with a disability. This is why it is important to have ambassadors who can put in a good word for the organisation in important places, such as with the authorities and the media.

The well known people listed below dedicate time, for no own benefit, to promote the IAHD and to encourage Diving with people with disabilities.
