By attending on both days, successful candidates will be eligible for the Two Day (16 hour) Outdoor First Aid certificate. The second day of the course is customised for outdoor instructors, practitioners and leaders, and focuses on applying the taught skills in a far-from-help environment. Students are generally instructors, scouts, fell runners and mountaineers. The 16 hour Outdoor First Aid course validates NGB awards and is particularly suitable for those working and leading groups in the outdoors. The cost is £130 and there is full info about the 2-day Outdoor First Aid course here. Next running on 3-4 November 2014.
This practical, relevant first aid course is just £65, and covers the basic skills required by the HSE for workplaces. It’s accredited by the nationally recognised First Aid Industry Body too, so you can be sure you’re learning good stuff. Here is what some recent participants had to say about the course:
“Very informative and incredibly useful for both work AND home. Truly a must for ALL employees!”
Did you know that we also offer a second day for this course, delivered in the outdoors, and leading to the nationally recognised Outdoor First Aid certificate?

Emergency first aid at work course
Come along on the 20 February 2014 to learn vital life-saving skills, should somebody stop breathing or suffer severe bleeding. Attending the one day first aid course will make you eligible for the nationally recognised Emergency First Aid at Work certificate.
You can also attend a second day, leading to the Outdoor First Aid (16hrs) certificate. Suitable for those requiring a higher level of knowledge and operating further from help. This active and practical course is customised to the learners, and is perfect for instructors requiring NGB revalidation.
I thought the course was very clear and well delivered. There was a lot of discussion about first aid areas and topics as a group, which was a lot more interactive than I have experienced on other first aid courses. The tutor did a great job throughout, tailoring the information to our venue.
