Hi Mark, I think what now helps is they use an electronic dive table. Whilst this isn't accessible using the handset they give you I was able to learn what buttons to press and what the prompts were so I could use it, I just needed someone to read out the answer. I also then found an accessible application which included dive tables so I could put in my dive information (deapth, time etc.) and it'd do all the calculations for me. The tricky bit was doing the navigation. I used a compass on my IPhone but it was pretty fiddley to be honest.
Take care, Louise.

I passed the swim test and the written exam, aced them of course, but they wouldn't give me a dive license because I couldn't use the tables. So I do hope you fix this.
