19/10/2026 — 'Basic Life Support' course by Kentdale First Aid Training

I was very impressed with the resources, especially with the attention to detail, variety of AED's, and with the infection control. The range of scenarios helped to give the training a real world feel, which is so much more helpful if CPR needs to be practiced outside of a clinical setting.

As discussed at the end of the course, its my favourite of all the ones i attend. Andrew is an absolute gentleman, with a font of knowledge and experience. I will be sad knowing he will more than probably have retired on my next refresher in 3 years time.

The trainer was extremely experienced and was able to give first hand examples of different aid scenarios. It was a relaxed atmosphere and no one felt pressured to try techniques if they didn’t want to. The trainer had a good sense of humour and the ratio of watching and listening and hands on practice was great.

I highly recommend this First Aid course. The knowledge and experience of the instructor shows in a well delivered, fully engaging course, which educates on what to expect in a real situation. The course was interactive and a safe space for students to ask questions, which were always answered thoroughly to ensure everyone fully understood. I will continue to keep coming back when my next First Aid update is due. Thank you!

Thank you for a very intensive, fact packed, practical course. The delivery was frst rate by an extremely knowledgeable paramedic (Andrew Dickinson) with huge expereince to draw upon in case examples; The resources were also better than any other course i have been on with 1 x resuscitation doll per person with high tech gadgets to monitor pace and technique. I have not come across that before and it gave feedback in real time which was very helpful. All round a first rate expereince. Thank you Kentdale First Aid.

I have attended this course at Kentdale for the past 16 years, and it continues to be outstanding. It is engaging, informative, and delivered in a way that is accessible to learners of all experience levels.

Andrew is an excellent trainer who strikes the perfect balance between professionalism, humour, and interaction. This makes the course both enjoyable and memorable, despite the seriousness of the subject matter.

The key learning points are presented in a practical and effective way, helping delegates retain the essential information needed in a crisis situation. Phrases such as "Breathing in and out, blood flows around the body" stay with you long after the course has finished and serve as valuable prompts when they matter most.

I would highly recommend this course, Andrew, and the team at Kentdale to anyone seeking high-quality, practical, and engaging training.
