16/12/2020 — 'Outdoor First Aid 1 day' course by Lakes First Aid

I wondered about the plastic bags and stuff inside in terms of the covid security - I might have just missed Luke saying it had been left for 72 hours to avoid transmission.

Unfortunately we did the course inside it would’ve been nicer to do it outside in the environment like a forest where we were doing forestry first-aid other than that course was great

Definitely the best first-aid course I've attended. It was clear, well structured and well delivered, covering all the crucial aspects of emergency first-aid. The step-by-step protocols and handy acronyms were really helpful and these were reinforced by the simulated scenarios, which challenged us to apply the skills we had learned in a more realistic and variable environment. There were also lots of really useful insights, 'myth-busters' and other tips specific to the outdoor setting. Ross was upbeat and approachable, extremely knowledgeable and great at responding to questions. While I hope never to have to use the things we learned, the course left me feeling far more confident. Thank you!

03/10/2020 — 'Outdoor First Aid 1 day' course by First Aid Cumbria.

Pete delivered a fantastic course; totally up to date, engaging and delivered clearly and with a very human touch. Every course I have attended with Pete have managed to bring in new elements and increase my first aid knowledge, whilst covering all the basics thoroughly. The covid-secure measures he has in place this year are second to none - I felt extremely safe throughout the day. He has employed good alternatives to the hands-on close contact elements of the course. In summary a fantastic course with a good balance of activity, visual aids and direct teaching. Thank you Pete!

Awesome first aid course!
it Covered all the important bits and made it more realistic with its approach to 'carpet casualties'

Testimonial from Philip Brooks
05/12/2019 — 'Outdoor First Aid 1 day' course by First Aid Cumbria.

This was a refreshing approach to first aid, direct and informative without being overwhelming in its content. It was easy to see the wood for the trees and know what is really important in any given scenario. The use of resuscie annies, one to each participant and the ability to get instant feedback via my android phone was so useful in improving my technique in giving CPR and seeing the workings of the defibrillator was really helpful. An enjoyable day.

Cumbria First Aid provided a one day course for our volunteers from the Fairfield Association Nature Reserve. Twelve of us attended and the cost gave our Charity very good value. From previous training we knew that we would receive top quality training from a man who knows his stuff and how to present it.

11/07/2019 — 'Outdoor First Aid 1 day' course by First Aid Cumbria.

This was my first ever First Aid Course, I was concerned that I would be overloaded with technical information. The instructor was marvellous, so knowledgeable and very approachable which makes learning a pleasure. The course content was great and I came away feeling confident that I will be able to use what I have learned with confidence.
