Why choose this course?
This course is for anyone over 16 who wants to learn baby and child first aid for their everyday life, rather than as a requirement of their job (in which case a workplace course could be more suitable).
It is ideal for parents, expectant parents, grandparents and other family members, and anyone who is often around babies and children.
Nobody likes to think of their child being in an emergency situation, but learning first aid will give you the confidence to be able to help should you need to.
This course has been designed with parents in mind, to guide you through exactly what you need to know. 
It covers a range of childhood emergency situations; from choking and unresponsiveness to fever and meningitis.
It's perfect for:
parents of children of all ages (from birth to puberty)
expectant parents, as part of preparing for parenthood
grandparents
family members
babysitters.
If you care for a child professionally, our Paediatric first aid course meets workplace requirements.

What is covered?
You’ll receive practical, hands-on learning. Our friendly trainers will help you learn some key skills you really need to know:
dealing with an emergency
choking
unresponsive – breathing
unresponsive – not breathing (cardiopulmonary resuscitation – CPR)
fever and febrile seizures
seizures
head injury
burns
severe allergic reaction
bleeding heavily

An Exciting Practical Face-To-Face Textiles Skills Course, 
for Teachers of GCSE & A Level Textiles, for both Art & Design and D&T.



Review:  ‘Put simply, this is the best course I’ve ever been on.
Excellent pace and delivery with resources sent afterwards as well. We learnt so many techniques and then practised them for ourselves too! We also learnt how our students could develop them further. We did so many samples of each of the techniques with a variety of materials and processes. Viewing exemplar sketchbooks at the end was a great way to conclude the day.
I’ve come home, buzzing with excitement, feeling inspired and well prepared for the next academic year. I would highly recommend! Great course, delivered by a lovely team! Thank you so much!’ Alice Munro – June 24, 2023

Setting workplace boundaries to improve your wellbeing

Many people struggle to set boundaries because of a niggling fear that they will be letting people down, upsetting authority or come across as difficult. But healthy boundaries are essential to look after our wellbeing and therefore our effectiveness at work. 

Some of the keys to setting great boundaries are knowing what you want (or don't want), why that matters to you and being able to communicate that to others in an assertive way - confident but friendly. And there are tools to help you achieve this. 

What you will get from this 60-minute session:

Understanding the different types of boundaries we set and understanding your current patterns and preferences.
Strategies for feeling more confident and assertive - ready to have workplace conversations about boundaries.
Guidance on how to assertively and diplomatically put boundaries in place and ask for what you want. 
Tips on how to say no in a way that feels comfortable for you
Support in action planning the boundaries you want to strengthen in your work.

And we’ll end with a visualisation to help you build your confidence.

Presentation - Corporate Sponsorship by Jane Montague

Session aimed at corporate fundraisers.

_ _ _

One of the big conversations Jane seems to be having with hospice clients is how much other hospices are asking for sponsorship of events?

We've asked Jane to run a forum on this very topic to help HIGN members have conversations about what is working and what we're asking of our corporate partners.

Some of the topics we'll be talking about are:

What corporate sponsorship opportunities are you offering your partners?
What added extras are you providing and what are the corporates asking for?
How much are you charging for sponsorship and on what events?
What are some of your wins AND, equally important, what hasn't gone as you've expected?

After the success of the corporate volunteering session that Jane ran last year, this talking forum will be invaluable for HIGN members. Please come ready to share and take part.
