I got a lot of value from being among participants who have deep knowledge of working with groups/First Aid in the hills and the group/leisure activity sector. For me, I gained more insight from doing the course in Cumbria vs. locally in London.

A very enjoyable, practical and participative course. Supplied a good set of tools to use, together with the problem solving experience with which to apply them.

Excellent course that adapted to the skill level and knowledge in the room, thus iterating us towards being better and more confident in talking action than a course founded strictly on a low baseline knowledge assumption.

Pete’s ability of illustrate points though stories and examples as first responder and outdoor practitioner punctuated the course and brought to life the needed though processes and decisions.

Another enjoyable course which kept the delivery style and pace fresh and engaging. Plenty of background information, examples and details to help bring each topic to life. Great use of resources from experts in each area rather than loads of slides.

My thanks to Luke and the members of the course who took my mobility issues within their stride. I am well on the road to recovery but kneeling is still difficult and this was taken into consideration

Pete is a real natural at delivering this course. He uses real-world examples to teach the course, helping you understand the real world first aid applications. The delivery is great with videos, practical sessions and examples. Informative and even funny!

A really useful and interesting 2 day course. Pete is thorough, engaging, inclusive and pragmatic in his approach to first aid, with lots of real-life experiences to share as learning points. The pre-course learning meant more time for practical learning on the course.

Great course, thoroughly enjoyed it. Peter's style is really relaxed and welcoming, great delivery of relevant and interesting 1st hand and 3rd party accounts of real situations that really highlights the importance of the skill. Excellent practical scenarios to keep you on your toes, and a nice dose of humour thrown in. Until next time, thanks.

Pete has excellent relevant background practical knowledge, which he freely shares when appropriate. The course is well supported with quality props and visual aids. The pre-course e-learning activity was excellent, enabling more time to concentrate on practical aspects. Time well spent.
