Common questions

Frequently asked questions

Something not covered here? Call 01462 379879 and we will talk it through.

  • How many people can you train at once?

    Most courses run with up to 12 learners, which keeps the practical time per person high. Larger teams are usually split across consecutive days.

  • Do you come to our workplace?

    Yes, on-site delivery is our most popular option. We bring the manikins, defibrillator trainers and all other equipment, and work around your shift pattern.

  • Are the qualifications recognised?

    Yes. Courses are regulated and meet HSE expectations for workplace first aid provision, and certificates are valid for three years.

  • How long are certificates valid?

    Three years. We will remind you when a requalification is due so your cover never lapses.

  • Can the training be tailored to our risks?

    Absolutely. Scenarios are shaped around your environment: site injuries, trackside incidents, pitch-side collapse or classroom emergencies.

  • What does it cost?

    Pricing depends on the course, group size and location. Tell us what you need and you will get a clear quote with no obligation.
