The Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981, place a general duty on employers to make, or ensure that there is made, adequate first aid provision for their employees if they are injured or become ill at work.

A well trained first aider can make the difference between life and death. It has been statistically proven that the first few minutes following a serious accident are the most critical. Our first aid training courses provide a hands on approach, giving students the skills and knowledge to deal effectively with serious incidents, as well as minor accidents such as cuts, sprains and burns etc.
