Booking a Course
We can run in-house training at your venue for groups of up to 12 per instructor. You simply need a room large enough to not only seat everyone but also to allow them to lie on the floor and be rolled around without bumping into furniture or each other. We will also ask for the details of the AED equipment that you have on-site to make sure that the course is tailored exactly to your requirements. Ask about organising a BLS & AED course for your group >>

First Aid Tips

When you come on one of our first aid courses you'll notice that we no longer talk about the "Heimlich manoeuvre" when dealing with choking. Instead we call the same movement an "abdominal thrust" and we also give you an alternative action, back blows, to try to dislodge the blockage first. Why is this?
