Royal Navy Clearance Divers have long established links with Orkney going back at least 40 years. Not only has Northern Diving Group and their predecessors helped keep the population safe by providing expert help in disposing of historic ordnance washed up on the island’s extensive coastline, but they have also been involved in commemorating those lost during the sinking of HMS Royal Oak at Scapa Flow, helping to maintain Orkney’s history and heritage. The 39-strong team of divers, stationed at the Royal Navy’s Base in Scotland, HM Naval Base Clyde, also provide bomb disposal expertise to other communities across the length and breadth of Scotland, as well as Northern England and Northern Ireland.
