    • "Before today’s course I felt unable to give first aid if needed.

      As a result of today’s training I now feel able to give first aid if needed, the course was informative and I would say to you it is not as daunting as you think."

    • "Prior to the course I was a little dubious, I was scared I might forget what to do. I was worried about remembering it all.

      I now feel calmer and well informed. The course was wonderful. I would encourage you to do it."
