‘Both of these wines are [Grape X] from [Country Y] – so why is this one twice the price?’ It’s a question that we’re often asked, so for summer 2024, we’re putting on a trio of tastings to show what happens when you fork out some extra money. Each week, we’ll try four pairs of popular styles of wine, one bottle of we’ve bought for under £10, while the other has cost at least twice as much. And we’ll be trying each pair ‘blind’ – you’ll know what the wines are, but not which is in Glass 1 and which in Glass 2… We’ll have a chat about what it is in each case that makes one of the wines more expensive, then we’ll see which you prefer before revealing which is which. Do you have expensive tastes, or are you more at home with the cheap and cheerful? It’s a great opportunity to find out – and to taste some lovely wines!  The line-up for each week will be: Week 1 WHITES: New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, Italian Pinot Grigio REDS: Australian Shiraz, Red Bordeaux Week 2 WHITES: Loire Sauvignon Blanc, South African Chenin Blanc REDS: Rioja, New Zealand Pinot Noir Week 3 WHITES: White Burgundy, German Dry Riesling REDS: Red Rhône, Argentine Malbec Each week’s tasting will include 8 wines, and there’ll be some tasty cheese as accompaniment. The cost for each tasting is £37.50, but if you book for all three sessions, the price will be just £100, saving £12.50.

Are you, or your company in need of high quality first aid training? Do you require excellent training to fully support colleagues in the workplace? MHA Training Ltd would love to help with any of these requirements. MHA Training is approved by Qualsafe Awards, an Awarding Organisation recognised by Ofqual. This means we can offer regulated Qualifications in these courses. All of our courses are aimed to help employers to comply with the Health & Safety (First Aid) Regulations. First Aid Training is required by who? A knowledge of basic first aid can make the difference between life and death. Studies have shown that effective first aid can be vital in the first few minutes after an emergency. There are plenty of success stories in the media about this training saving lives as it’s such an important life skill. A first aid qualification can help your resume, CV, or even open up job opportunities. There may also be opportunities to volunteer using your first aid skills. It has been a vital life skill that people have used for members of their own family not just in the workplace. The 3 main goals are to preserve life, prevent worsening and promote recovery. You never know when the need will arise to put these skills to use. The First Aid Training experience. A First Aid training course should be an interactive fun learning experience, not all chalk and talk. This is achieved by using fully qualified trainers/assessors, who are very experienced “hands on” training professionals. Our trainers are sympathetic to the needs of the individual trainee and adept at getting the best possible standard from the delegates. First Aid At Work Regulations: In the event of injury or sudden illness, failure to provide first aid could result in a casualty’s death. The employer should ensure that an employee who is injured or taken ill at work receives immediate attention. HSE will prosecute in cases where there is a significant risk, a disregard for established standards or persistent poor compliance with the law. HSE First Aid at Work – IMPORTANT! After 1st October 2013 the HSE is no longer responsible for approving providers of First Aid at Work courses. Providers must be approved by an Ofqual or SQA Awarding Body. MHA Training Ltd fully meets all of the new requirements. MHA Training has been established for 15 years, based at our training centre in Warrington, Cheshire. We provide an array of services On-Site also for clients around the North West in areas such as Manchester, Liverpool, Widnes, St Helens, Runcorn, Wigan, Preston and Leeds. Over the years we have expanded and have instructors available Nationwide.

It is important therefore, to make a plan for how you would deal with such an emergency situation.
