| 29/07/2008 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | Well-run couple of days, which did what it said on the tin. Pete demonstrated great diplomatic skills in managing a diverse group. I'll do the same course next time my qualification comes up for revalidation. Thanks - Andy
Testimonial from Andy Gill |
| 06/12/2007 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | Particularly impressed with Pete's personal experience of real first aid that backed up an incredibly thorough medical knowledge, and excellent delivery. He managed a group superbly that had a mixture of 'never done a 1st aid course' to some of the most experienced British Mountain Guides in the country. Pete is far more than someone who has been on a first aid trainers course! Highly recommended. Loz Colyer Deputy Head of Centre, Tower Wood LEA.
Testimonial from Laurence Colyer Link to student's website |
| 07/12/2007 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | We all enjoyed the course. Itwas well run and presented in a way that suited a whole range of learning styles. We were all kept active and the practical sessions were relevant. I would reccomend this course to anyone. Petes delivery was interesting and his experience in the outdoors gave real credibility to the theory presented.

| 07/12/2007 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | A useful hands on ( all over!)course, a positive but calm atmosphere was created.Well organised, good equipment, Pete did a great job. Essential course to keep up to date, would be good to offer one day refreshers too.
Testimonial from Philippa McMurdo |

Testimonial from Peter Fry http://www.outdoored.co.uk/HumphreyHead/ |
| 28/07/2008 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | The course was carried out very well, with a relaxed approach, however it was still packed full of information and I think everyone felt like they learnt something new.
Testimonial from Catherine Turner |
| 25/07/2008 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | The course repeats lots the "arrive at the scene what to do" bit witch is very useful when faced with a real situation. I have realised that i would do things differently if I ever was faced with the real situation i had to deal with again.
Testimonial from Stuart Carter http://www.climb365.net |
| 25/07/2008 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | Another great course the second day is great. Better space and fewer numbers is good. We enjoyed there being a good mix of girls and boys.
Testimonial from Stuart Carter |
| 21/07/2008 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | Pete used his extensive practical experience to make the sessions interesting and informative. He coped admirably with the wide range of experience in the group and still moved us all on.
Thanks for the training.
Testimonial from Cheryl Wiseman |
| 18/07/2008 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | Quality, informative, educational and enjoyable two days. My wife has also been a very good practice casualty though complains that i don't need to shout "open your eyes please" as loud as i've been doing.

Testimonial from Guy Whitton |
| 24/06/2008 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | Fantastic two days...really enjoyed every minute. Although I have been doing First Aid for years, there is always something new to learn...or a new way to learn it. Thanks again.
Testimonial from Paul Wheelhouse Link to student's website |
| 01/05/2008 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | I had a wonderful time and I'm really glad that I learnt the skills. I would recomemd anyone who is planning to do sport in the outdoors take the course
Testimonial from Suzy Howat |
| 28/04/2008 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Andy Craven Training | The course was very informative, flexible in that it was tailored for paddlesport as appropriate, and delivered in a friendly style that encouraged learning.
Testimonial from Bruce Bell |
| 28/04/2008 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | Really enjoyed the course, I was expecting to learn lots of stuff about how to deal with broken ankles/legs head injuries that I might get climbing. But putting all the heart attack/stroke/diabetes stuff in context makes me see that this is probably more useful.
Learning how to prioritise breathing/neck injuries was particularly interesting.
Cheers for a good weekend.
Andy
Testimonial from Andrew Blackett |
| 27/04/2008 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | An Excelent all round practical first aid course that gives a realistic method and look on first aid in the outdoor enviroment!
Testimonial from Douglas McTurk |
| 23/03/2008 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | I really enjoyed the course, it was the second I had been on at this venue. I find the pace and structure of the course excellent. I feel the course really concentrates on the basics but more advanced information is available if you need it.
Testimonial from Joseph Maguire |
| 20/03/2008 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | A great hands on course. I think the session where you got us to train each other whilst managing a casualty really helped. It forced us to think about what we were doing and by vocalising it to someone else also meant that we had to put the sequence of treatment in a logical sequence. A very useful training aid. Hope to see you in the future - Kind regards Chris

| 17/03/2008 | Paediatric 12 hour course | Adventure Learning | It was very enjoyable, usually I feel very nervous about these courses but the instructors put us at our ease and were willing to go over anything you didn't understand. I especially liked the mini talks we did on the various illnesses and conditions.

| 07/12/2007 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | Well considered, practical and enjoyable First Aid course aimed specifically at those taking part in outdoor activities. Not just a certificate, something that might genuinely help you if faced with an emergency situation on the hills.
Testimonial from David Stewart http://www.walkingworld.com |
| 18/03/2008 | First Aid at Work 4 Day | Adventure Learning | So good to have a course that you can relate to your workplace. We work in an adventure park and it really puts things in prespective to be able to attend scenarios in the situations we may well one day need to attend. The practical element of the course really applies your learning in such a way that you find it difficult to forget everything you have learnt. An excellent course, THANK YOU!
Testimonial from Susan Morgan http://www.bewilderwood.co.uk |

Just a quick word to say how much I enjoyed the first aid course. I guess I am like many clients who take part for NGB validation - I booked because it is a requirement of my BASI licence to say up to date. Having said that I would recommend your course to all, particularly outdoor enthusiasts and will be passing on your details to those at the NPA who deal with health and safety. You created a very positive and supportive atmosphere and the coaching progression and variety of styles and activity were great. I was intrigued by your idea of first aid training as a group development activity and I could well be in touch to talk about that in the future.
All the very best.
