First Aid is an excellent life skill to possess and having the correct training really can make a difference if you are ever in a situation that someone is taken poorly or injured that needs your help - this could happen anywhere and at any time!

I was an active member of the Amateur Radio Emergency Network, who provided communications facilities to the voluntary first aid event services.  I used to worry that I would find myself at a medical emergency and only have the company of my two-way radio to call for help. I felt that I needed first aid skills in order to be more useful. 

In my spare time, I enjoy running my own music club, based around the digital electronic Keyboard. "Musical Showtime", runs quarterly, at a local theatre, in Peacehaven, East Sussex, where capacity audiences enjoy a wide range of musicians and musical styles. 

My main aim, in the first aid world, is to deliver courses, where the delegate feels totally relaxed and able to learn in a way compatible with their own individual learning style.  My courses are taught differently every time to achieve this.  I enjoy keeping things simple and logical using non-complicated language and teaching techniques, developing skills into non-forgettable habits. Knowledge is developed, by formalising, reflected recognition features of a delegate’s personal experiences.  Above all, I am passionate about giving deep and meaningful explanations, to qualify why I demonstrate a skill in a particular way. This allows a deeper understanding of the subject and a better overall standard of competence.

I believe that learning first aid, goes so much further than just learning how to put on a bandage. Communication skills, to achieve good rapport and compliance with a casualty is incredibly important to the overall good outcome. With this in mind, rapport building, conversational and non-verbal communication skills form a vital inclusion in my presentations, to allow casualties to build a confidence in their first aider and also allow first aiders the confidence to treat in a more prompt safe and efficient manner.

It can be so easy to miss vital signs and symptoms and early intervention is crucial. This is why I decided to deliver Mental health First Aid training so to keep raising awareness and reducing stigma.  In my spare time I enjoy anything that makes me laugh - that real feeling of happiness!
