Friends of DDRC

The Friends of DDRC is a formal group of staff, ex-patients and supporters of DDRC who help the charity by:

  • Paying an annual subscription (minimum £25 annum) which helps to provide the Charity with much needed funding
  • Helping to organise fund raising and awareness raising events
  • Providing special perspectives to the staff on how services are run

The Committee meets regularly and reports back to the Board of Trustees through its Chairman. The Committee comprises Trustees, DDRC staff and ex patients as follows:

  • Chair - Mr Peter Atkey - DDRC Operations Director
  • Secretary - Ria Fox-Brown - DDRC Centre Manager
  • Mr Steve Horsham - Wife Ex Patient
  • Mr Dave Pelly - Ex Patient
  • Mr Keith Scrivin - Ex Patient and 1,000th Diver treated at DDRC
  • Mr Paul Dart - DDRC Senior Training Officer
  • Gary Smerdon – Research Director

Friends of DDRC receive a regular newsletter with articles and gossip about what is going on within the Charity, and have the opportunity to have an input into the Charity by contacting Committee members if they wish.
