Children & Babies Emergency First Aid

I was on that course today, led by Bryan and Rob, and I just wanted to pass on how excellent it was. I practise a holistic therapy called "Bowen" and must hold at the very least the Emergency First Aid certificate in order to maintain my membership with the FHT. I did the initial training 3 years ago, and so had to re-train this year. Both trainings were with First Response First Aid, but I must say that I found today's training really very good. Brian and Rob offer 2 different styles of teaching, but they complement each other very well. Brian's understated but very witty way grabbed my attention for most of the day, and left me with no doubt that I had a very knowledgeable person in front of me. If Rob initially came across as a not so confident speaker, he immediately perked up as soon as it was down to practicing some skills, and his enthusiasm was very communicative. He also knows how to correct people's inaccuracy in their gestures in such a way that doesn't make them feel self-conscious, but rather encourage them to do better. The fact that he is a firefighter undoubtedly adds some perspective to his input. So I guess all I'm saying is thank you for providing such a quality training. I went home feeling rather confident with the thought of having to use those refreshed and updated skills; though I still hope not to have to use them.

The trainer explained clear objectives and kept refreshing things we had done so it stuck. He was also sensitive to experiences of individuals partaking in the course.

Tom made a subject that could have been boring very interesting and challenging. His delivery & method I found very effective. I feel very confident to carry out First Aid if I had to. Well done Tom

Please can I ask you to pass on my compliments for the first aid training yesterday at Reginald Mitchell Court. Glenn Hulse the trainer presented the course very well, we were all very impressed, and we enjoyed the day which is what matters.

Thank you for organising the First Aid course here. Please can you pass a message of thanks on to Brian who took the course. We were all impressed with his professional manner and sense of humour!

I consider that the First Response (First Aid) trainer, both as a personality, together with his presentation style, as like a breath of fresh air to the first aid teaching industry.
