Ross was fantastic - engaging, funny and truly passionate. His enthusiasm was infectious and inspired a really positive atmosphere. I was so impressed by his deep and varied knowledge, and especially by the well thought out range of props and scenarios we went through every day. A very hands on experience that made me feel prepared to deal with a genuine scenario.

I really enjoyed this course and find the practical side of it helps me to remember the information and procedures much better. Also the calm no rush manor of Tom and Dave when delivering this course makes it easier to ask questions and practise skills without feeling pressured.

I found the course very thorough and I liked the use of practical real life situations. We also had lots of opportunities to ask questions and discuss our own work situations.

Fantastic, enjoyable 2 days where I learnt a massive amount of information, got to put it all into practise but in a non-threatening way. Great trainer who was enthusiastic with endless knowledge who enabled us to succeed. Asking questions was actively encouraged and we were guided to problem solve for ourselves. It was a very positive experience.

Thank you for a great two days (even if it was working over the weekend). Luke was very professional, making the course fun and lighthearted whilst also getting the serious side to first aid through. The cakes were delicious too. Thank you!
