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.

Just completed a 3 day course and would like to thank Mick for all his hard work. His delivery and instruction was precise however it was his humour and friendliness which made it memorable. He gave us all so much confidence and assistance , I feel properly trained to cope with anyone needing first aid. Can’t thank you enough Mick. See you in 3 years.
