JR

“Excellent, Knowledgeable trainer (Beth). I’ve done this course numerous times with Acorn and I always learn new things, not just updates. Additional information was always relevant and helpful to increase understanding. No question was made to feel irrelevant and was given the opportunity to be discussed. I liked the mix and pace of subject matter.”

DW, Private Customer

“Beth was very knowledgeable and was able to pass on some useful skills and techniques. She kept our interest and was very aware of how were feeling (temperature/nervous etc). I have completed many first aid courses and this was the best!”

“We had Amanda in today doing Emergency First Aid at Work and she has been excellent. I’ve snoozed through so many first aid courses, but she kept our attention and had some great anecdotes from working events, makes a nice change to have someone with experience in our world. Many thanks.”

“Engaging, kind trainer who kept the pace of the course flowing nicely (Administration of Medicines to Adults in care).”

“The trainer was inspiring who delivered, chunked and informed the information perfectly and in a very welcoming way (Level 3 Award in Paediatric First Aid). I can now confidently administer First Aid in any emergency/incident at my work place or indeed outside of work.”
