| 03/03/2010 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | The way in which the course was taught was far better than some others due to the greater level of practical activities which help you to feel more confident in what you are doing

Testimonial from Mike Scott |
| 28/02/2010 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | I felt that there could have been more practicals in between the talks on the first day. However, overall this is still the best first aid course I have been on as the outdoor setting provides a certain reality to the situation that first aid courses focused entirely inside lack.
Testimonial from Emma Rowley |
| 25/02/2010 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | Much nicer experience than I was expecting. I enjoyed it. The learning atmosphere was excellent and while I was much less experienced than many of the participants I was never made to feel inadequate or less useful. Thanks, Pete.
Testimonial from Frances Bell |
| 24/02/2010 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | I found it difficult to find a good outdoor first aid course but Active Aid have succeeded. Pete is an excellent training instructor made a serious subject both interesting and entertaining - a good way for trainees to absorb and retain information. The balance between audio/visual and practical sessions was spot on. "Tell me and I will forget, show me and I will remember, let me do it and I will understand"; In that respect, given the absence of real casualties (thankfully), the course was a complete success. Thank-you.
Testimonial from Robert Collyer |
| 19/02/2010 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | A well-hosted and delivered course, at a great venue. Facilities indoors and out perfect, food spot-on. The material was relevant and a good sense of what is realistically practical in a first aid situation was given.
Testimonial from Stuart Halford |
| 14/02/2010 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | Loads of practical sessions were good for the learning process and added interest to the course.
Very informative, this has been the best 1st Aid course i have attended.
Thanks Pete

| 11/02/2010 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | an excellent and enjoyable 2 days. lots of information delivered in a firm but friendly way. Would definitely recommend it- good pub lunch was a definite pluspoint.
Testimonial from Mary Winterflood |
| 11/02/2010 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | Great course, well presented, relevant and memorable. Absolutely 1st rate and worth the slightly confusing booking process, which with all due credit Peter helped make sure I got a place when I messed up.

| 20/01/2010 | Paediatric 12 hour course | Adventure Learning | The course was very useful, full of common sense and practical sessions and ideas. There was plenty of time for additional concerns to be shared, aired and resovled.I felt that we learnt & consolidated more due to continual assessment rather than trying to memorize satisitcs & facts for a test at the end. Thank you
Testimonial from Pam Brook |
| 14/01/2010 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Outdoor Resources Ltd | Very informative, enjoyable and practical. Gained a lot from attending the course.

| 07/12/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | Excellent course.
Trainer was very informative and delivered in a professional and easy manner!
Questions were answered continuously, thoroughly and further advice given where needed.
Constant review of personal performance was excellent and made the learning process alot easier.
It was also excellent to have a trainer who was experienced in the outdoor environment and could deliver the course to that specific environment.
Testimonial from Edward Pugh |
| 07/12/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | I thought the course was excellent. Pete was a fantastic teacher; everything was thoroughly explained including demonstrations. The course structure was well organised with every lesson being reinforced and built upon as we moved through the course content. Pete was well experienced, able to answer all my annoying questions whilst ensuring we didn’t go too far off track and was able to give his own experiences to support the treatment. The venue was excellent, good classroom and great food. A very well organised and enjoyable course.
Testimonial from Nicky Whitley |
| 23/11/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | Fantastic corse and valuable learning curve for myself, will go on to do more. The teaching method was well designed allowing students to participate in a way that was fun, certainly not boring! Thank you Pete & Pete I now feel more confident to assist if ever the need arises.
Testimonial from Dawn Cooney |

Good course. Maybe a little more on cold injury and group managment/multiple casualties etc
Testimonial from Bob Eastwood |
| 10/11/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | Pete delivered another great experience. This is my third with Adventure Learning and it never feels like its just going over old ground. I recommend Pete to anyone wanting quality first aid training at affordable prices.
Testimonial from Greg Bartlett |

Testimonial from Julian Duttson |
| 13/10/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | An enjoyable and informative course run by a very good, approchable and knowledgable trainer. Having attended numerous similar courses in the last 20 years this was by far the best I experiance I have had. I really enjoyed the two days and have learnt a great deal of theory and skills that I feel confident I could put into practice if the need ever arose. I will recommend to others without hesitation and would definatly attend more of your courses.

Testimonial from Peter Ross |
| 09/10/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | A very well run course with a good presentations which were well practiced and delivered in a extremely pleasant manner.There was an abundance of equipment for the practicals especially the practice dummies which meant for lots of hands on. With mid morning and mid afternoon coffee breaks and an inclusive bar meal this course was a real pleasure. Thankyou Peter.
Testimonial from Stephen Smith |

Testimonial from Georgina Greenall |

Testimonial from Bob Henson |
| 10/09/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | The course was brilliant! It was really well organised and had lots of practical exercises involved in it, which I particularly enjoyed. I would definitely recommend it and would like to do another one with Active Aid in the future.
Testimonial from Helen Jeffs |
| 03/09/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | I had high expectations of the course and of the instructor, and I was not disappointed. Pete delivered a superb course, and kept me engaged even when I felt I was tiring. We had good fun outdoors and that's always the best way to learn. It feels good to have updated my skills. I will definitely go with Adventure Learning again, and recommend it highly.
Testimonial from Joanne Wulf |
| 28/08/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | This is a well-planned, practical course, led by an instructor with huge experience. Nearly every aspect is 'hands on', often outdoors and in the rain. Every committed walker and mountaineer should do it.
Testimonial from Mark Lambert |
| 26/08/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | I found the course extremely useful for me and have learnt so many new things that I can apply to my career. Learning the emergency procedure theory and having it all coming together during the practical outdoor sessions was brilliant - the instructor was very informative and fluid with everything throughout. 10/10!
Testimonial from Stephen Sidlo
http://www.stephensidlo.com |
| 26/08/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | I was prompted to seek first aid training after having had to call Mountain Rescue while out with friends. Fell-walking is not a risk-free pastime and some basic first aid knowledge is well worth having. This course was perfect for my needs: there was continuous reinforcement of the basics, building up to team problem-solving in an outdoor setting. I feel better prepared to deal with a future emergency.
Testimonial from Andrew Horner |
| 25/08/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | An excellently organised course with an enthusiastic and helpful trainer. I particularly enjoyed the amount of practical work and reinforcement aspect to the sessions. Left feeling confident that I could help deal with any incident. Will certainly be back to renew.
Testimonial from Wayne Enstone |
| 11/08/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | Excellent course, well tailored to the needs of the participants.
Testimonial from Tony McKenzie
http://www.key-change.net |
| 10/08/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | Active Aid provided one of the best first aid courses I've had the pleasure of attending over a coaching career of 25 years. I found the balance of presentation and practical to be just right, and the delivery excellent. Active Aid also successfully avoided the usual "siester effect" in the afternoons - high praise indeed.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Active Aid to friends and colleagues, and will Actively do this in the future!
Testimonial from David Larkin |
| 07/08/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | Would have liked a little more info before the course: in particular wanted to double-check with someone that it was a suitable course for me working towards ML (which it was)but was unable to speak to anyone who knew.
That said, had a great time and couldn't fault trainer, content, venue or value for money so many thanks!
Testimonial from Alison McKay |
| 06/08/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | A very enjoyable and practical course which I will be recommending to my colleagues.
Testimonial from David William Kerrison |
| 05/08/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | Pete - great training course 100% interactive and I learnt masses and felt very supported by you and the other participants.Would recommend Adventure Learning to others.
Only negative was that the anecdotes got a bit much after a while, so may be worth asking students who have obviously done 1st aid before to share some of their experiences in the group.
That apart it was great. See you in 3 years!

| 27/07/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | Best first aid course that I have been on, none of the course was boring. First aid courses are usually boring! Great how it was related to the outdoors. Great venue too, pub lunch and beer!
Testimonial from Tom Shaw |
| 15/07/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | Well-organised with lots of practical activities to practise first aid.

| 18/06/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Outdoor Resources Ltd | Would recommend this course for anyone adults working in the community who has responsibility for others.
Thanks for a busy, but great, two days comprehensive training
Testimonial from Victoria Greenwood |
| 17/06/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Outdoor Resources Ltd | A very hands on approach to a normally very dry subject. Lots of information delivered at a snappy pace. Physically demanding so those with joint problems need to discuss the programme in advance.
Testimonial from Alison St. Pierre |
| 16/06/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | This was the second time I have done a course with Pete and I will be back in 3 years time! The mixture of theory and realistic practical, un-pressured environment and working with like minded people made it great learning environment.
Testimonial from Ian Wilson

| 12/06/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | The best first-aid course that I have been on and exceptional biscuits too.
Testimonial from Simon Yates

| 12/06/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | An enjoyable and worthwhile 2 day programme that I found very useful to update & improve my previous knowledge & 1st Aid qualifications. I thought Pete created a very good 'learning' environment throughout the programme.
Many thanks

Testimonial from Paul Bate |
| 04/06/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Outdoor Resources Ltd | Ashley St.John Clare is a first class deliverer of this course and our group have used him for years. The students are well informed and his teaching methods ensure that they retain a large amount of information and skills. This can be seen when they have to do their refreshers out on the hills. An exercise we practice on a regular basis.
Testimonial from Stuart Sykes |
| 15/05/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | A very practical course with plenty of opportunities to share ideas and to practice.

Testimonial from Ian Currer
http://www.northern-paragliding.com |
| 30/04/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | I thought the course was very well run and enjoyable to attend. The course was well adapted to cover the outdoor scenarios many of us (all students worked in the outdoors) would face. The outside practical element was especially useful, and if anything, more of this would be beneficial as these are the conditions we would be working in, rather than a nice flat floor in a pub.
Testimonial from Simon Oakley |
| 25/04/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | Best first aid course I've attended. Thank you
Testimonial from Alison Bembridge |
| 25/04/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | Excellent course. Great balance between practical and theory. Really good venue with good lunch on both days. probably the best first aid course I've ever done. Thanks Pete for a really good couple of days.
Testimonial from David Hendrickse
http://www.davidhendrickse.co.uk |
| 06/04/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | Thoroughly enjoyed the hands on approach. One of the best 1st Aid courses I have attended in a long time. Pete's delivery of starting at the beginning each time meant that the information was being continuously reinforced.
Testimonial from Jane Newton |
| 09/03/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | Among the many F.A. courses I have attended this was one of the best. Informative, well presented, enjoyable.

Testimonial from Sarah Lawrence |
| 28/02/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | great, and good to come back for a 2nd time, which shows that I think what you are doing is good, I've done BASP, and REC, among others, but this suits, and is good.
and the venue works very well, giving good accom as well, which works very well
thanks,

| 25/02/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | The coarse was well tailored to towards outdoor and sports professionals (which the trainees all were). The trainer's background knowledge and experience made him able to answer all our questions thoroughly. The delivery was exemplary. I feel I have substantially increased confidence for delivering first aid.

Testimonial from Thomas Cassidy |
| 22/02/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Outdoor Resources Ltd | I really enjoyed the course having found it useful and practical. The 'Hands-On' approach is greatly effective in the learning process and , although I hope never to need the skills I have learned, I feel they will put me in good stead in an emergency. Thanks
Testimonial from Michael Nicholson |
| 29/01/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | The course was run in a very practical, hands on way. I certainly think this will enable me to retain and build on the excellent content and delivery ...... and it was good fun !
Testimonial from Glenn Bridge |
| 26/01/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | A great couple of days really nailing some basic skills. Very useful and practical scenarios were carried out over the 2 days which really helped in learning the sequence of dealing with a variety of situations. The trainer had an effective style which created a good environment to learn
Testimonial from Janet Wilkinson |
| 20/01/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | A good experience all round. I have been doing this Level of First aid course every 3 Years since 1998. This was one of the best, I came away fealing that i had learned a lot more than I expected to. Thanks Very Much.
Testimonial from David Keene |

Testimonial from Janine Cowan |
| 13/01/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | Thanks for a very helpful two day course, I will certainly feel more confident and I hope will be more competent, dealing with first aid incidents outside.
Testimonial from Fleur Spore |
| 13/01/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | I do feel more ready to approach different situations able to look at the circumstances and have a clearer sense of the aspects I need to consider and how to make the situation most secure etc, given the circumstances. I would have liked to have had even more time spent on different scenarios, possibly starting by the end of the first day, and perhaps extending the use of items we would be carrying in a rucksack. The scoring system was excellent as it kept driving home the fact that the essential needs have to be remembered every single time.
I found Pete Cunningham an excellent trainer, able to make us feel we were working together and concerned about the same matters and yet also clearly a thoughtful authority on first aid needs and situations. The way that he encouraged some discussion without letting this take over or deflect us from the central needs was excellent.
The setting added to the good experience - far better than a bare hall. The sense that the people at Little Gidding were interested in us having a successful time added to the positive sense.
Testimonial from Helen Garrett |
| 12/01/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | I found the course very informative and active. The instructor’s presentation was very lively and he showed good knowledge and experience of first aid.
Testimonial from Joseph White
http://www.lancastercys.com/ |
| 12/01/2009 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | The course was excellent, 10/10. The trainer was really good, I liked the way that he could use his own experience as a mountain rescuer. I liked that there was lots of 'hands on' for us, as it meant that the information went in better, and it made it more interesting. I enjoyed getting outside to put what we had learnt into a practical situation, and the scenarios made you think!
Testimonial from Hayley Weightman |

Testimonial from Matthew L Dobson |
| 16/12/2008 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | Excellent course Pete. Enjoy isn't the word I'd use as I find it quite stressful - with so much information in such a short time. Personally I'd prefer a drip-drip approach.
Also booklet is excellent and I will refer it again and again to try to get keep these procedures in my mind.

Testimonial from David Chapman |
| 05/12/2008 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | I thought Pete was excellent. Clear, concise and pragmatic. I learnt lots of useful information as it was kept in an easy to understand format. I liked the way he kept using lots of different mediums for training (video, booklet, powerpoint, diaglogue, demonstrations) as it kept it interesting. Brilliant.
Testimonial from Lucy Bound |
| 04/12/2008 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | I found the course enjoyable, and particularly liked the emphasis on the key "Must-do's" ABC. I think i will definitely be able to retain the appropriate information under pressure if ever faced with a serious incident. This gives me confidence - prevous courses i have found a bit overloaded and left overwhelmed. This course was perfect - thank you very much Pete. Kathy
Testimonial from Kathy Iffla |
| 04/12/2008 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | I thought the course was made very relevent to everyone who attended, which was quite a wide range of people, which was excellent.

Testimonial from Aileen Maceachen |
| 12/10/2008 | Outdoor First Aid (2 day) | Adventure Learning | Thank you very much Pete. I really enjoyed the course. I think particular strengths are having so much opportunity to practice and repeat procedures and so feel confident with what we need to do. Assessing each other is great because it required us to constantly reflect on what we were doing and so reinforced the learning. Your style of delivery, and confidence in our ability to succeed is very affirming. Thanks.

| 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.

| 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.

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 | 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 |
| 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.

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.
