Pete is an excellent trainer who delivers a well-paced and informative course. Being able to obtain a certificate towards my driver CPC is also very useful. Highly recommended to anyone who wants a simple, effective grounding in first aid.

This was the best course of any kind I have ever attended (and there has been a lot).

Testimonial from Colin Hind

I would suggest that there could be more opportunities to ask questions on future courses. I needed time to process new information, that challenged my previous understanding, before I could ask questions. I often found myself interrupting the delivery in order to ask a question. Subject content on cold water shock and hypothermia challenged my previous understanding so I need time to reflect on this. The treatment of open wounds also challenged my previous understanding. The course has therefore provided food for thought and subjects for further investigation.

super useful information, well-explained examples, great videos, stories, and practical elements. It is great how the trainer involves others to share their experiences and information.

This has been by far the best first aid course I have attended. Pete’s timing and resources in the delivery of the course were spot on and kept everybody engaged and interested. His use of visual and actual resources helped me to relate the course content to real life situations and gave reassurance that I would be able to take appropriate action if it were ever needed. Pete’s open, honest and friendly approach engendered a relaxed and collaborative atmosphere within the group and his discussion regarding mental health (both that of the casualty and the first aider was a refreshing addition to a first aid course.

Thank you Pete for delivering high quality 16 hour outdoor first aid training. Great fun, very informative, learnt lots and we practised the techniques we were discussing over the two days. I have been on this course before, and will definitely be coming back in 3 years when I need to renew! Thanks again.

Peter Cunningham's knowledge of first aid and the human body regards illnesses and treatment is excellent. I don't think Peter dodged a question during both days of the course. His method of teaching and hands on approach was faultless.
I wish Peter and his family all the best for their future.

Pete Cunningham's courses are always a pleasure to attend even if first aid is not always everyone's favourite subject! It is always helpful to get the latest insights and also to experience different topics getting prominence - expanding my awareness every time. The 'culture' of the course is always relaxed but purposeful and full of encouragement to learn. I always leave with a confidence boost that I can really help someone in need. Highly recommended!

Very useful addition of section on Sepsis. Many past courses never mentioned it.
It's really useful to know things that you DON'T need to do. Less is more?
