“I recently attended a 2 Day, 16 hour outdoor first aid course. This is the 6th time I have attended this type of course over a period of 18 years. This has been necessary to maintain the validity of my ML qualification and enables me to continue leading as a volunteer for a major walking holiday company.
All previous courses were held mainly indoors with a token offering outside. The majority of this course was held outdoors, on the Ridgeway, in naff weather. The scenarios almost felt real.
Highly recommended”
