The quality of the delivery was excellent throughout. Luke was an outstanding tutor, and this was the second time I have attended this course with him. His depth of knowledge, calm manner, and engaging delivery style really stood out. He created a supportive and welcoming learning environment, encouraged questions and discussion, and was very effective at adapting content to the needs and experience of the group.
The resources were very well prepared and well suited to outdoor first aid, with realistic equipment and scenarios that supported practical, hands‑on learning. Everything was clearly organised, which helped the course run smoothly over the two days.
There was also a real sense of warmth and positivity throughout the programme. Combined with the beautiful outdoor setting, this significantly enhanced the learning experience and made the course both enjoyable and memorable.

Ross was a fantastic trainer, very engaging and in depth but in a concise manner. He was very personable. Being able to practically apply every training method, using example equipment, definitely made such a difference in my understanding and memory.

I have completed multiple outdoor first aid courses and this was by far the best delivery I have experienced. The courses content was robust and relevant with David making every effort to tailor it for the diverse needs of the professional roles each delegate held in the room. His wealth of experience as a paramedic and work within healthcare was invaluable to understanding the practical application of each section of the course and the pitfalls of dealing with each scenario in ‘the real world.’ A superb couple of days that flew by and gave me the confidence and reassurance of dealing with situations if they should ever occurs.

Luke did a fabulous of job of running the two day course. Third or fourth time I've been on an LFA Outdoor first aid training course and I think they're exemplary. The courses provide the perfect balance of content delivery, group activities and carefully designed scenarios that help you to develop the course skills and build your confidence. Would highlighly recommend to anyone working in the outdoors.

The course was great, really different to previous First Aid courses I have taken, and I have taken many over the years! I left this feeling much more confident that I can and would be able to deal with first aid situations within my work setting, on an expedition and beyond if needed.
