Fantastic to have someone with such a wealth of experience delivering. This is the best first aid course I have been on ( and I am well into double figures for first aid training courses! )

I found the 'acting' out - especially the realistic/scary noises made - to be very helpful and something that is more likely to stay with me than just being told about symptoms.

Thank you David, what we liked was the relaxed teaching style and the 'tell it as it is' approach. Your paramedic experience helped we felt in the right zone.

I thought the course David delivered was excellent. The information and guidance was relevant to our primary interest as walkers as well as in everyday scenarios.

I think David's years of experience and stories of incidents he has been involved in bring the topic to life.

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.

An enjoyable day. David packed a huge amount of information into the available time, and his real-life scenarios helped with envisaging possible (and bizarrely improbable) incidents where First Aid might be needed. I left with improved confidence in my ability to deal with an emergency, and greater knowledge.
