British Divers Marine Life Rescue (BDMLR) is a charity dedicated to the rescue and well being of all marine animals in distress around the UK.

The charity BDMLR consists of a network of trained and professional marine mammal medics (MMM) who respond to call outs from the general public, HM Coastguard, Police and RSPCA. Please note, there is no need to be a diver to be a supporter or to become a marine mammal medic.

Lifejackets: The course fee of £90.00 includes the supply of a life jacket, but please note that if the life jacket is not returned at the end of the day, a levy of £50.00 will be made for non-return.

Dry & Wet Suits: You must bring a dry or wetsuit, boots and gloves as part of the course will be in the water.
