Testimonial from Ian France 01/06/2025 — 'Emergency First Aid at Work' course by
Active First Aid Training Limited Fantastic to have someone with such a wealth of experience delivering. This is the best first aid course I have been on ( and I am well into double figures for first aid training courses! )
Testimonial from Sharron Hutchinson, Cycle coach, Kendal cycle club 01/06/2025 — 'Emergency First Aid at Work' course by
Active First Aid Training Limited I found the 'acting' out - especially the realistic/scary noises made - to be very helpful and something that is more likely to stay with me than just being told about symptoms.

Testimonial from Naima Milhofer 03/08/2024 — ' First Aid at Work' course by
Active First Aid Training Limited This course will have been my 12th or 13th re-qualification but my first using the blended option. I like it! Removes the pressure of having to find a course which matches potential free days. On-line section is flexable and easy to follow/complete.My instructor for the "classroom" day was highly experienced, very knowledgeable and quickly instilled confidence in and a rapport with our group.Good venue, a plentiful supply of equipment and nice mix of teaching styles. In short, one of the most enjoyable courses I've attended in many years.

Testimonial from Jenny Gibbard, Staff Nurse, Hospice at Home 22/05/2024 — 'Outdoor First Aid 1 day' course by
Active First Aid Training Limited An enjoyable day. David packed a huge amount of information into the available time, and his real-life scenarios helped with envisaging possible (and bizarrely improbable) incidents where First Aid might be needed. I left with improved confidence in my ability to deal with an emergency, and greater knowledge.

Testimonial from Ruth Elstone, Bolton Primary School 23/06/2023 — 'Emergency First Aid at Work' course by
Active First Aid Training Limited David was extremely knowledgeable and engaging. He clearly has lots of experience in this field and enjoys what he does. He used his own experiences as scenarios which I found helped understand why we use the processes he taught us. I feel that the skills learnt in this course are invaluable and everybody should attend a first aid course, not just for at work but for at home too.

Testimonial from Graham Snowdon 04/09/2021 — 'Outdoor First Aid 1 day' course by
Active First Aid Training Limited Would like to say thanks again. It was great to re-sit the corse, it’s surprising how much you forget about first aid when you don’t have to use it. Great corse, great tutor.. thanks again
Testimonial from Andrew Bell, Tree surgeon 16/08/2021 — 'Outdoor First Aid 2 day' course by
Active First Aid Training Limited A great course delivered by a hugely experienced trainer. It was an at times graphic look at the reality of dealing with certain situations, without any time wasted on applying immaculate bandages. Hopefully I'll never need it, but David's descriptions of the noises and sights we may encounter may just help to reduce that initial shock when dealing with a situation in the real world.

Testimonial from Lian Nelson 04/06/2019 — 'Outdoor First Aid 1 day' course by

Testimonial from Dylan Scott, Sales Executive, Ribblesdale Land Rover 20/05/2018 — 'Emergency First Aid at Work' course by

Testimonial from Phil Dew 26/04/2018 — 'Outdoor First Aid 1 day' course by
Active First Aid Training Limited I really enjoyed the course and our instructor Dave really explained things easily and clearly.
Testimonial from Matthew Smaile 28/03/2018 — ' First Aid at Work' course by
Active First Aid Training Limited I left this course an enlightened and more confident 1st aided. I have attended 1st Aid courses since I was 14yrs old due to my leisure interests and it was the first time in all these courses that I was told that CPR would result in the possible breaking of ribs. If I were required to perform CPR now I would be more confident in being able to carry out CPR without panicking if I did hear a rib breaking. This I believe is vital information that could save a persons life as had I needed to perform CPR prior to this course in would have panicked and possible stopped through fear or shock not expecting possible cracking from the ribs. Dave easy to talk to and he answered all questions and has the experience to back up his teaching.
Testimonial from Andrew Clark 13/03/2018 — 'Emergency First Aid at Work' course by
Active First Aid Training Limited A well structured and well delivered course on relevant first aid issues. i would definitely recommend this course.

Testimonial from Francis Twizell 20/02/2018 — 'Outdoor First Aid 1 day' course by
Active First Aid Training Limited This is the second time I have put my full team through this course, the first being three years ago. We came back to this course because the experience we had three years ago was such a positive one and again we have had a very positive experience. I would recommend this course to anyone, who like myself has a hardworking positive team, who need facts expertly presented quickly and in a friendly way. We will be back in three years. Many thanks to Dave Watt, he has given everyone a sense of confidence and ability.
