27/01/2026 — ' First Aid at Work' course by Lakes First Aid

This is one of the best first aid courses I have participated in. Ross was knowledgeable, confident and interesting. It was great that anicdotes weren't allowed and this saved so much time! The different scenarios were interesting and made me think, things weren't always as they seemed. I never felt that this was meant to catch us out, I felt it was to make us think and keep us interested. I don't think I have ever left a first aid course feeling as confident as I did this time.

Our trainer, David, was fantastic. His anecdotes gave real life examples of when to use various methods. He was approachable, very knowledgeable and actually made the course enjoyable rather than another tick box thing we had to do. I left feeling confident and competent.

Amazing course, I learned so much. The material was delivered with much enthusiasm. Andrew explained things so well and was very patient, any questions that I had Andrew was able to answer them and explain the detail. I have completed the course and feel very confident in my learned abilities as a first aider.

Ross was excellent. Very engaging and enthusiastic and made the course fun as well as educational. You can tell he's an expert in his field and that shows in his training.

The course was well structured with practical skills fitted appropriately into a systematic approach to a casualty. Luke is a friendly and engaging trainer who combined knowledge with an ability to present and simplify important concepts, taking into account the differing pre-course experience and needs of participants.

This course will have been my 12th or 13th re-qualification but my first using the blended option. I like it! Removes the pressure of having to find a course which matches potential free days. On-line section is flexable and easy to follow/complete.My instructor for the "classroom" day was highly experienced, very knowledgeable and quickly instilled confidence in and a rapport with our group.Good venue, a plentiful supply of equipment and nice mix of teaching styles. In short, one of the most enjoyable courses I've attended in many years.
