Brian delivered the course content in a highly informative manner. Excellent opportunities to practice CPR techniques and bandaging skills.

It's the first time I've ever done a First Response First Aid course, as I've always done a St Johns before now. I'm very impressed as I didn't glaze over.

I felt that this course was very informative and delivered in a friendly and reassuring atmosphere by a very knowledgeable trainer. I would recommend this course and trainer as essential to all foster carers. Information obtained will prove invaluable when dealing with any potential future emergency situations. I would like to thank Tom for the experience

Well what to say..... Thanks to First Response my training detected a broken wrist my 5 year old daughter had today. The injury happened at school all the teachers/first aiders failed to spot it. The injury happened 3 hours before I collected her no response from anyone at school but I did what I was taught by Brian and spotted the signs did a sweep only took 10 seconds. Poor girl was at school for 3 hrs with a fracture. 10 seconds with me and my training had her in A&E 20 minutes later. Cast on... Thank you for teaching me guys.
