Supporting Our Veterans: FRFA's Commitment to Ex-Forces Recruitment

Our commitment to supporting ex-forces personnel has not only enriched our organisation, but has also earned us the prestigious Bronze Award from the Armed Forces Covenant. 

Recruiting Ex-Forces as First Aid Trainers

Why We Actively Recruit Ex-Forces Personnel 

Military service instils exceptional qualities that translate perfectly into civilian roles. Veterans bring a unique blend of leadership, discipline, and adaptability that enhances our workplace culture. Their experience in high-pressure situations, strong work ethic, and ability to work effectively in teams, makes them invaluable assets to our organisation. 

Our ex-forces employees consistently demonstrate: 

  • Outstanding problem-solving abilities 
  • Strong organisational skills 
  • Natural leadership capabilities 
  • Unwavering commitment to excellence 
  • Exceptional teamwork and communication skills 

It’s these qualities that make veterans exceptional additions to the Impact Futures family. Their presence only enhances every aspect of what we do.  

Bronze Award Recognition: Our Commitment to the Armed Forces Covenant 

The team at First Response First Aid is proud to have received the Bronze Award from the Armed Forces Covenant, recognising our dedication to: 

  • Supporting the employment of veterans and service leavers 
  • Establishing a positive policy toward defence personnel 
  • Ensuring our workforce is aware of our positive stance toward former military staff 
  • Creating a supportive environment for ex-forces employees 

This recognition means so much to us. Our organisation prides itself on its policies and support for veterans. This award serves to elevate our ex-forces recruitment efforts going forward. 

Our Ongoing Commitment 

We intend to continue providing meaningful, civilian careers for these exceptional individuals. Looking ahead, we're dedicated to: 

  • Expanding our ex-forces recruitment initiatives 
  • Developing tailored training programmes for military transitions 
  • Creating mentorship opportunities 
  • Building partnerships with military recruitment organisations 

The support we are honoured to provide is vital in helping those with military backgrounds establish strong, sustaining civilian careers. We only stand to gain from one another, and create positive educational experiences for our learners and business partners.

  • This is my 4th first-aid course & best by far. The teaching technique was excellent and it was easy to digest.

  • I wanted to let you know that in 22 years, this was by far the best first aid course I have ever been on. The trainer (Glenn Hulse) was really thorough, his explanations and demonstrations were clear, and the course was good value for money because he delivered more than the 12 full hours, no time was wasted, and I came away confident that I can cope in an emergency

  • The trainer from First Response delivered a first class First Aid Course. The content was suitable for the age range of the children who attended (Young Carers) they were treated according to age and level of understanding. The trainer fully engaged the young carers throughout the course and placed an emphasis on doing the best they can and not to be afraid to try. The young carers went away with a good level of first aid skills. We would thoroughly recommend this course.

  • I am writing to you following the Blended PFA course I completed today, 1/10/22, in Bedworth with Paul. I would just like to say he is an absolute credit to your team, and I wanted to send my thanks and appreciation for how kind, caring and thoughtful he was throughout the course. I was very anxious on the day about attending due to leaving my 5-month-old son, who I breastfeed, but Paul made me feel so relaxed; he wanted to ensure my son's needs were considered and put first, and he was willing to adapt to my sons routine, and he made me feel so calm about leaving my boy for the first time. He delivered the course with such enthusiasm and animation, and he was just an all-around friendly, genuine guy who I hope realises how valued he is! I will remember more from this course than any previous FA course I've ever attended. Thank you, Paul ???? We need more people like you in this world. Leanne

  • Just had feedback from my guys who attended the First Aid Course yesterday. I have never received such good feedback from any course I have sent the guys on. They were all very impressed with the whole days course and the trainers were said to be "fantastic". This morning I was waiting for the moans and groans but it was totally the opposite and sang your praises to the highest level! A particular mention was for Laura who was apparently VERY VERY good and very impressed with the way she delivered the course. So from me, thank you for delivering what was said to be a very enjoyable and very informative course!
