Get Involved
There are many ways to support the Navy Clearance Diver community beyond donating. Attend an event, fundraise in your own way, or offer your time and skills. Every action strengthens the community behind Australia’s Clearance Divers.
ACNC-registered and proudly independent. No government funding received. Every contribution goes directly to the community.
There is more than one way to help
Whether you can give an afternoon or a long-term commitment, there is a role for you here. NCDT is a volunteer-run organisation. The community behind Clearance Divers includes people just like you. Choose the path that fits best and follow the link to find out more.
Attend an NCDT event
NCDT events bring the Clearance Diver community together for remembrance, connection, and fundraising. Events are open to members, families, and supporters. Whether you attend to honour service, connect with the community, or simply show up, your presence matters.
Fundraise for the community
Run a challenge, host a gathering, or organise something of your own in support of NCDT. Whether you are raising funds individually, as a team, or as part of an organisation, every dollar goes towards the Clearance Diver community.
Volunteer or become a mentor
NCDT is run by a committed team of volunteers. If you have time, skills, or experience to offer, we would welcome your support. From 2026, ex-serving Clearance Divers can also register their interest in the new CD-to-CD Mentoring Program.
Partner with veterans
Are you an employer or organisation open to hiring veterans? Clearance Divers bring exceptional discipline, technical ability, and leadership. Partnering with NCDT as a veteran-friendly employer is one of the most practical ways to support the community after service.
The line holds because people show up.
Every event attended, every dollar raised, every hour volunteered keeps the network strong. Find your place in it.
