First Aid • Life-Saving Skills First Aid Training is not just a Course; it’s a life-saving skill everyone should possess. It’s about being prepared for the unexpected knowing how to respond when seconds count. As Health & Safety Law mandates, employers must create a secure and healthy environment for their employees. This responsibility extends to providing immediate and effective First-Aid Care when necessary. We understand that learning is best achieved through practical application. That’s why we offer In-Person Workshops on First Aid. These workshops provide hands-on experience under the guidance of our highly qualified trainers. You’ll have the opportunity to practice what you’ve learned in a controlled environment before you need to apply it in real life. Upon completion of a First-Aid Qualification, employers can be assured that they have highly-trained personnel capable of responding swiftly and effectively to any First-Aid needs. This fulfils legal obligations and contributes to a safer, more caring work environment for all. In essence, the First Aid Certification is more than just a qualification; it’s an investment in the health and safety of your workforce.

Therapeutic change cannot happen until the emotional arousal is reduced. This is why all health and welfare professionals need to know how to induce the relaxation response in their clients. Guided imagery and visualisation not only reduce emotional arousal quickly but can be used to reframe life circumstances through metaphor and to rehearse in the imagination any required changed behaviours and/or feelings, which dramatically increases the likelihood of those changes taking place in ‘real life’. If you want to be able to help people effectively, this is a key course to attend – guided imagery is an essential skill required for removing phobias, curing PTSD, lifting depression and overcoming addictions or self-harm, and is also useful for raising self-confidence and increasing motivation.
