I have had a great day learning first aid. It was informative but gave us plenty of opportunities to gain confidence and see real life incidents that we may encounter.
It was made relatable to everyone's jobs, Andy made specific references to children first aid which supported my line of work.

Thank you for a great course. All the equipment was immaculately cleaned and the venue was warm and well equipped. I think Andrew delivered the course brilliantly and took the time to speak to people individually during breaks to get to know them giving a more personal touch. I will look forward to returning in 3 years :)

A great refresher course from Lakes First Aid - Ross led really helpful discussions and created a friendly, relaxed atmosphere that allowed everyone in our group to engage. The mix of theory, discussion and practical was perfect - and the new high-tech Annie's were a fun way to test our resuscitation skills!

03/02/2026 — 'Outdoor First Aid 2 day' course by Simon Clooney

I cannot fault Simon's delivery and knowledge.
His easy style, and ability to engage the group at all times is impressive to watch.
Simon has the bandwidth to deal with every candidate needs, no matter what their experience and learning preferences are.
I have attended over a dozen different courses of varying quality over the past 30+ years. The last 4 have been with Simon and Active-aid, and I will continue to use them into the future, as both the content, quality and style of delivery is outstanding in every way.

Pleasant tutor, covered all that we needed to know.

31/01/2026 — 'Forest Schools First Aid ' course by Lakes First Aid

Well resourced accommodation. Luke as trainer is clear, informative, makes things as simple as possible and gives both good examples during discussion and excellent hands on scenarios , which breaks down knowledge into chunks and then slowly builds these when working through scenarios. Lot of repetition to allow you to remember key strategies. Makes participants feel comfortable to contribute and is skilled at questioning to develop knowledge and critical thinking

Testimonial from Janet Brown, Senior Teaching Assistant, Chetwynde School

30/01/2026 — 'Emergency First Aid at Work' course by Lakes First Aid

This course was just great from start to finish and I took away a lot of useful knowledge and confidence in first aid if I ever needed to have to use it.

29/01/2026 — 'Outdoor First Aid 2 day' course by First Aid Cumbria.

This training was far and away the best I have ever been on for first aid and I have been on many as a school pupil/swimming teacher/ lifeguard/ teacher. It was very engaging, real, affecting and did a brilliant job of combining lots of detail and information explaining bodily functions, scenarios and the "whys" of what we are doing etc while also paring things down to simple basics meaning I feel far more clear in my role as a first aider. The training covered so much; it related to my professional life of course but also very much to my personal life and brought into sharp focus everyone's potential fragility and the need for everyone to have these skills. A very powerful course that I would get both my very active sons to do if they lived locally! Thank you. I have lots to take back to school and to my family and friends.

Testimonial from Nicki Bradbury, Head teacher, Nether Kellet Community Primary

It has given me a lot more confidence with first aid and some really good tips for improving some of the procedures of my guided walks. Huge thanks go to Ross. I definitely think you need your own You Tube channel!

I had the most amazing time learning outdoor first aid with Luke of Lakes First Aid, and now know I can go fully prepared to help out for any incident should it arise on the fell or in an urban environment.
