What our customers say about us
“Amanda is by far the most engaging and knowledgeable trainer I’ve met (First Aid at Work). It was an absolute pleasure to be taught by her and I hope if I had more training she would be the trainer. I feel I’ve learnt and retained more information due to her excellent teaching methods. I will be more confident now when dealing with First Aid emergencies.”
“The trainer was wonderful and I really appreciated the way he ran the course (First aid at work). He really engaged the group and made me feel safe and comfortable with what was quite daunting as a first time first aider.”
“The West of England Moving and Handling Trainers Foundation Course (train the trainer) was the best update I have completed in my 20 years of training, having completed with many local and national companies. Sarah presented at our level with lots of good tips to help our care staff, plus looking at equipment that I hadn’t seen before. Just loved the slide sheet sleeve/glove and only £9, so adding it to my kit. Although I had a long trip over (and even longer one back due to two road closures) it was well worth it.”
“There were no parts of the training that were unhelpful (Emergency First Aid at Work). I feel much more confident in making quick decisions. It has given me motive to want to extend my knowledge. It was the best first aid course I have done. Great atmosphere, very well taught, excellent training!”
“The course was very well presented and informative (First Aid at Work). I now have an awareness of First Aid equipment and people’s behaviour.”
“All of the course was useful (First Aid for Adults & Children). It contained a good mix of listening and practical. I feel more confident with everyday issues such as nosebleeds.”

I have attended several first aid courses in the past, yet this one proved to be above and beyond the finest by a country mile (Emergency First Aid at Work on 14th July). This is chiefly due to he trainer who effortlessly presented himself as:

Their ability to create a supportive and relaxed environment for learning has greatly assisted me in my recall of the key points from the training, combined with enhancing my confidence in being a first aider.”
