How about #special #Police service#/

Charity Work? Volunteering in a homeless shelter - thats usually a bit of an adventure.

Soup Kitchen?

seriously , what bassisting a disabled person ? very few people will do that :thumbsup: when you teach a disabled person a new skill however small it may seem to you , you will feel like you have won at the olympics :thumbsup:

I learned to Scuba Dive in 2000 with a local club (part of the British Sub-Aqua Club). I started with a free 'Try Dive' which was a couple of sessions in the local pool + instruction. Then joined the course one evening a week (theory and practical) for about 10 weeks. Subsequently went to the Red Sea in 2002 and had one of the best holidays I've ever had. It was a most amazing experience.

Scuba Diving would be a great new experience - it was certainly out of my comfort zone :- " , but I felt really good when I had achieved the basic qualification of Club Diver. There was quite a good social side at the club too if you wanted it. I haven't carried on with it (I'm not really sure why, but maybe I preferred diving in warm water :- " ).
 
I visit an old peoples home, when my nan died a few years ago I wanted to give something back to all the elderly that are just forgotton about, (believe me there is lots). I phoned around and I now visit an elderly home as often as I can. The rewards are amazing, just spending some time and listening to stories about there youth, family, war and most of the old ladies men :- " :blink: . I can honestly say its great, also you can enquire about taking dogs in as long as they are quiet. Jasper is a defo no go, he likes to lick and greet everybody as if he has never met a human before :rant: :rant: OK, so its not climbing mount everest, but you meet some of the most amazing people, who lets face it we owe so much!!! :thumbsup:
 
Oh my god youve all given me some really good ideas! Thanks! i hadnt really thought of teaching disabled people a new skill before but it sounds a good idea. Not sure what I could teach them though as i dont have any myself! And scuba diving also sounds brilliant fun! i think a few letters and phone calls are in order. Thanks again everyone!

I too did Scuba Diving :thumbsup: I started off being claustrophobic and panicking, but very quickly began to love it. There's nothing like diving in the ocean with all the beautiful fish :) Has to be warm water though :thumbsup:
