First Aid Courses
Our First Aid Courses are accredited by the Number One Awarding Body in the UK, Qualsafe Awards. They range from Paediatric First Aid to First Aid at Work, and include a range of Sport Specific awards too, based on our knowledge and experience of these sports from a Medic’s perspective. All of our courses are delivered by our sister company NEMAS and backed by our tutor’s own collective experiences, not only from ‘the book’. We DO NOT add VAT to our course the price you see is the price you will pay.
