29/04/2026 — 'Outdoor First Aid 2 day' course by Lakes First Aid

The quality of the delivery was excellent throughout. Luke was an outstanding tutor, and this was the second time I have attended this course with him. His depth of knowledge, calm manner, and engaging delivery style really stood out. He created a supportive and welcoming learning environment, encouraged questions and discussion, and was very effective at adapting content to the needs and experience of the group.
The resources were very well prepared and well suited to outdoor first aid, with realistic equipment and scenarios that supported practical, hands‑on learning. Everything was clearly organised, which helped the course run smoothly over the two days.
There was also a real sense of warmth and positivity throughout the programme. Combined with the beautiful outdoor setting, this significantly enhanced the learning experience and made the course both enjoyable and memorable.

29/04/2026 — 'Emergency First Aid at Work' course by Lakes First Aid

This was my second First Aid course organised through Watchtree Nature Reserve. The first by a different provider, whilst adequate, stuck to basics and didn't inspire my confidence.
Lakes First Aid was, thankfully, completely different. Delivered with boundless and infectious enthusiasm and containing the latest advice and techniques. The repeated practical sessions really helped to consolidate the learning.
The very useful hints and tips on how to access emergency information and make the most of what a mobile telephone can provide was eye opening. The defibrillator demonstration has made me feel much more confident in their use if needed.
Overall an excellent course to gain new knowledge and techniques and has made me feel significantly more confident that if I found someone in need of assistance I would help rather than stand by and hope that someone else would step in.

I was really glad that the trainer taught us about the difference with male and female heart attack symptoms and spoke about removing bras when using a defibrillator. He was very knowledgeable about the statistics on women being less likely to receive CPR. This is the first time I have seen a first aid trainer acknowledge this and I think it’s great. 10/10

Clear instructions at the outset (no storytelling!!)
A perfect mix of getting the information across, while keeping the group engaged and busy. Repetition & build on DRS ABC was a great format for learning.

Luke was an excellent communicator and facilitator - the practical learning on this course was superb - so much better than any First Aid course I have been on before. Luke took the time to genuinely welcome and know who was in the room which enhanced the learning from the beginning. He had the skills to help people feel comfortable about getting involved in a very active way. Working with one other person through the day helped to build trust when we were practicing first aid skills physically. Thank you for an excellent day!

Ross was a fantastic trainer, very engaging and in depth but in a concise manner. He was very personable. Being able to practically apply every training method, using example equipment, definitely made such a difference in my understanding and memory.
