FIRST AID

We offer a wide variety of general and specialist first aid courses. However, we believe our courses should be about more than just a basic training. We aim to develop the 3 C’s in First Aiders of all levels – calm, caring and confident. Our courses are delivered in a fun and interactive way, with lots of practical activity and plenty of opportunities to ask questions and develop the skills you need. We are also happy to tailor our courses to suit the needs of your organisation – please speak to us about this when you book.

Formal courses are certificated by First Aid Awards, who are regulated by Ofqual and our qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF).

If you have a professional interest, i.e. you are a child-minder or school teacher, etc, then this course partly fulfils the requirements of Ofsted and the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS). Ofsted and the Early Years Foundation Stage require you to have 12 hours of paediatric first aid training, so the 2-Day Level 3 Award in Paediatric First Aid would be required to fulfil their requirements. This 6 hour qualification also makes up the first half of the 12-hour course.
