On behalf of my clients Greg, Chris and Martin and myself I would like to say a big thank you to Mike for delivering an excellent course today. With a lot of passion, enthusiasm, and humour together with practical and helpful hands-on interaction, the whole group became involved in a very enjoyable training day. As it was 10 yrs since I did my last first aid course, I learnt a lot and appreciate being brought up to date with the various changes and new topics not previously covered. Well done!
