EXPANDING HORIZONS
Since 2014, Richard Smith and Wendy Brown have been leading ‘Our Beloved Seas’ scuba diving expeditions for divers interested in learning more about marine life and exploring some of the best on and off the beaten path scuba dives the oceans have to offer. Wendy’s exhaustive knowledge of South East Asia’s dive sites gets us to the best locations to explore the region’s diversity, whilst Richard gives marine life talks so people can learn and appreciate fully the amazing creatures and ecosystems we encounter.
Richard and Wendy are both passionate about conserving the world’s seas and for each of their trips donate a percentage of the proceeds to a different conservation organisation that they feel are doing great work. In 2019, they donated over £2,800 ($3,800) to various marine conservation organisations. Some of the beneficiaries over the years have been:
Conservation International (with whom we are registered ‘Emerald Circle Donors’ for their high level of support), Save Our Seas Foundation, Project Seahorse, Galapagos Conservation Trust and the Marine Megafauna Foundation.
