The course was very good – the course presenter (Dave) was easily the best I’ve encountered – really outstanding, great balance of humour and fact and anecdotes. All participants seemed very engaged throughout, so he worked his audience well.

Hi Gareth, Thank you so much for your help and support over the last two days to enable me to complete this course so quickly. I cannot thank you enough for responding to emails and queries so promptly when I know you must be extremely busy. I found the course interesting and it has updated my first aid knowledge. Thank you once again. Joyce

“I want to say a big THANK YOU. Your first aid course saved my grandson’s life today, he choked badly and I managed to dislodge the bread from his mouth, after about 12 back slaps. Your courses save lives. I will never moan about doing a first aid course again! THANK YOU!”
