A SHARK dive is taking place at the Blue Planet Aquarium, Cheshire, in October, to raise funds for The Muscular Dystrophy Campaign.
The charity challenge is giving paticipants from Trafford the chance to swim with an array of underwater sea creatures such as sand tiger sharks and sitingrays.
Aimed at scuba-diving beginners, the charity is asking the brave volunteers to raise £370 sponsorship.
Qualified instructors will be on hand to offer training and scuba equipment will also be provided.
The money raised will go towards funding research into treatments for neuromuscular diseases which affect 70 000 UK families.
