Simon Clooney
I am a freelance instructor with over 25 years’ experience in the outdoor industry. As well as first aid training I work with people of all ages in a variety of development training and outdoor leisure situations. I also act as a First Responder with North West Ambulance Service.
I live in the Lake District but my work regularly takes me all over the UK and abroad providing 1st aid training to foresters, outdoor educators, international schools, expedition leaders, hospitality workers, youth workers, engineering workers and many other professions.
My interactive courses are tailored to make them relevant to my clients’ specific environment and I try to copy some of the situations that you might be likely to find yourself dealing with.

Testimonials for Simon Clooney
This course was a dynamic program with practical skills, enough theoretical knowledge to make relevant meaning, and a smidge of way-higher information to satisfy the most intellectually curious. Hands-on skills followed directly from the theoretical as taught, and question-and-answer sessions were super informative, always on-point, and validated both the content learning and the students’ different learning styles and level of prior experience. A highlight of the program was the respect that quickly developed between the instructors and students, and hence, among the entire group - super! Over the years I’ve taken my full share of EMS and outdoor emergency care courses, and Simon, along with Mark when he weighed in on the second day, delivered a product that was among the top I can recall in terms of value-added “I’m really glad I took this course” learning experiences in this field.
