A widow has told how her husband's diving death has left her with one regret - that she wasn't with him when he died. Angela Clarke says the loss of her huband, Roger, has left her so scared of water she can't bath or even put her face under the shower.
And she says the death meant she "lost my world" and reason to live. Mrs Clarke was speaking after a Health and Safety Executive investigation into the death of the 55-year-old, from Stafford, who drowned during an open water training dive in June 2018.
The investigation found that his trainer, Lance Palmer, was responsible for multiple failings that contributed to the tragedy, Stoke on Trent Live reports. Palmer has been ordered to complete 50 hours of unpaid work and pay costs of £3,085 after he admitted health and safety breaches.
