My name is Bridget and I'm the head of maths and computing at Nexus and my cast experience is diving and conservation. I got started with diving at my first school. Somebody needed a volunteers to go on a diving trip so I volunteered and ever since then I've been hooked on diving and that's actually the reason that I moved to Malaysia was to continue my diving and I did a few long term conservation projects in Borneo and I've been doing that pretty much every year since I started diving. I was inspired to start conservation because whenever I go diving I always look underwater and see what life is doing on the water. I wanted to learn more about that and because of the global climate change at the moment I wanted to see what I could do to help preserve underwater life. I participate in things such as surveys, having a look underwater and seeing what sort of fish there are. In particular I'm really interested in survey inventories. For me I get to practice my diving which is always very exciting. You can do a lot of diving every single day for some people actually stay in these conservation projects for up to a year. For me I do it during my summer holidays so it's six weeks so I really enjoy the diving aspect. I get to practice my underwater photography which is really a relaxing hobby for me. On top of that I get to learn more about the underwater world and how I can protect it and that makes me feel like I'm making an impact as well as going for it. The main challenges are staying in very rustic places. Normally there's no running water, there's no air conditioning or anything like that. You're staying on an island where you have to cook for yourselves, you have to form relationships with people that are around you. Sometimes it can be quite tiring, it can be hot, especially if you've been diving all day and there might be frictions between people. Forming those relationships in a group is quite important. But the benefits that you get from it definitely are way the challenges. If anybody wants to look into diving conservation, the company that I went to was called Barefoot Conservation. You can google that, check them out and you can see the amazing work that they do.
