Our Mission

DWI has the mission to take injured veterans on a trip of a lifetime to warm climate waters that are less offensive to their injuries. Supported by military doctors and nurses who have seen everything imaginable; it is one week of the year when in the words of a veteran, ‘they feel normal,’ ‘It’s one week of the year when I don’t feel like I am being stared at because of my injuries.’

Diving with the Injured has an established program in collaboration with the Defence Medical Services Diving Club, to train military healthcare professionals and injured veterans to dive together. It fosters a sense of belonging to the veterans by reassuring them, they have not been forgotten.

The initiative is supported practically by the Royal Centre for Defence Medicine and financially by University Hospitals Birmingham Charity through the “Diving with the Injured” Fund.
