Outdoor First Aid Training

With fewer people going abroad this year more people are heading for the Great British Outdoors…and who can blame them? It’s a glorious and beautiful place to be! 

The outdoor environment is such an idyllic haven of tranquility…until something goes wrong and being far from the madding crowd can make even minor wounds become deadly.

Learn how to deal with the injuries and the environment in this comprehensive and industry recognised Level 3 course.
