“I would just like to Thank you so much for squeezing me into the course last night (2 hour Free infant and child Resuscitation). I went in to it with zero knowledge on choking and resuscitation and first aid but left the course confident I could put in to practice what I was taught. Te instructor was an absolute hero…. so knowledgeable, so friendly, so helpful and so amazing he stayed on late to run through everything with me to make sure I was confident. Especially after an incident my wife had the day before in a supermarket. I will be booking my wife and her siblings onto the next course – I can’t speak highly enough of it! Thank you again and please pass on my thanks again to the trainer, he really is amazing.”

“The training was relevant, really informative, comprehensive and at a great pace (Foundation Level Manual Handling) 10/10.”

“I attended a First Aid at Work course this week and I want to let you know how fantastic the trainer was. I have never enjoyed a course so much and I was actually not looking forward to it as I had attended a previous first aid course some years ago (not with yourselves) and did not enjoy it. He delivered the training professionally and constantly kept people’s attention as he made it so interesting and kept everyone involved. I am going to miss attending the course tomorrow. He is an absolute credit to Acorn.”

“He was the best trainer we’ve had, made it so real and relevant. Kept our engagement. His passion shines through. I feel far more confident with all First Aid. 10/10”
