The Diving Academy Officially Acquires DM Scuba – Rebranded as Diving Academy Services
We’re proud to announce that The Diving Academy has officially acquired DM Scuba, marking the start of an exciting new chapter for divers across the South of England. As part of this move, DM Scuba is rebranding to Diving Academy Services – a dedicated in-house hub for scuba servicing, IDEST testing, and equipment care.
With centres now supporting divers in Reading, Swindon, Bristol, Colchester, and beyond, we are expanding our ability to provide world-class scuba training and professional in-house equipment servicing.
From DM Scuba to Diving Academy Services
For years, DM Scuba built a reputation for trusted scuba equipment servicing and diver support. Now, under the Diving Academy brand, those same services are continuing and expanding through Diving Academy Services.
This rebrand means one big thing for divers: all servicing and cylinder testing is now carried out in-house by our own expert team – no outsourcing, no delays, and no compromises.
