Enjoyed the experience and learnt a great deal that can be taken into everyday life. This course makes you so much more aware of the potential issues people face in their day-to-day experiences.

eil was a top-notch instructor as well. Kept things light when needed as well as communicating the points with ease. Would definitely recommend both the course and Neil as an instructor.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Emergency first aid at work course and training with St John Ambulance was a very worth while course that gives you confidence to offer first aid when needed. It included the correct way to put someone in need in the recovery position, help when choking and also CPR. The instructor was very friendly and and offered clear instructions and advice

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

A compulsory First Aid course, in a busy start to term, is the last thing a teacher looks forward to.... but these 2 ladies had a different approach. Thoroughly honest, practical and hard-hitting, they were fun, but determined that no one was leaving without the knowledge they had to uptake. A very refreshing session, they held interest and focus, and allowed for good discourse.

I completed a 2 day MHFA course taken by Sian. It was a lot of information over 2 days so you have to be prepared to listen however I cannot recommend St Johns highly enough, and Sian was a great teacher. The variety of learning, Case Study Videos, knowledge checks, and practical roleplay (not as bad as it sounds) was really good to keep you engaged. The group was a great bunch of people which definitely helped make the experience what it was. I will definitely recommend this course to others.

Caroline is one of the best trainers I have ever had the pleasure to be trained by.
Caroline was approachable, considerate of her class and flexible to everyone's learning needs with in the class.
I would recommend Caroline for a SJA award if you do any in recognition of her dedication to the job and her passion for teaching first aid.

The venue seemed a bit "empty" with no receptionist to advise students where to go this gave an impression of abandonment.

IExcellent and comprehensive course

I have just completed a two day Paediatric First Aid Course with St John Ambulance for the primary school I work in.
As always, and I ask if my training can be with St John Ambulance, the course was excellent with expert and easy to understand trainers who take you through the course dotted with practical and written tests with ease and confidence.

Thank you, once again, for an excellent and comprehensive course.
