Good News! We have public training dates for the following first aid courses in EdinburghWe had Sean come up recently to deliver first aid training to us in the school, we work in the Early Learning and Childcare department. Sean’s training was the best training we have ever been on, all the staff said the same, lots of fun ways to learn all the information needed for first aid. Highly recommend Sean, a brilliant trainer who knows his stuff
Absolutely fantastic course. 2nd time using this company. The course was completed by Robyn and her lovely assistant Jo. Extremely engaging, interactive and fun. Best first aid course I've ever been on. Keep up the great work guys 😊
