Fantastic quality training

I have recently completed the Outdoor First Aid Course, and found the training excellent, fun and engaging. But more than that, I have learned vital knowledge in a way that I feel will stay with me for the times which, hopefully, I won't ever need. Lifesaving Our training was delivered by Ian who was highly experienced and highly credible. We felt in safe hands. Thank you.

Head and shoulders above any others

I’ve done many first aid courses in my life, but LST’s one-day Emergency First Aid at Work course was truly the most engaging I’ve ever done. They struck a perfect balance of theory and practice, text-book and real-world. Genuinely enjoyable and certainly useful.

A well ran course that ticked all the boxes

I attended a one day Emergency at Work 1 day first aid course, ran by Ian at Life Saving Training.
The course was really well presented and backed up with some good kit to practice on.
I was very impressed at the instructors first hand knowledge and ability to engage all attendees.

A tailor made first aid course!

I just completed my First Aid at Work course with Life Saving Training - it was AWESOME.

I've never been on such amazing training. Ian is a font of all knowledge, and as a Mountain Rescue Volunteer his experience in providing outdoor first aid really helped me learn.

I work in the outdoors and he made a point of including extra training that would help in my working environment. Plus because my coursemates worked in all different industries, I learn loads of stuff that was tailored to their workplace too!

LST really went above and beyond - this wasn't just a tick in the box course. I've learnt skills that will ACTUALLY help me deal with any first aid situation that might crop up at work.

SECOND TO NONE TRAINING

I have been attending first aid courses for over 20 years and I can honestly say this is the best, most informative course I have ever attended. Ian was outstanding in the way he taught the course, the pace in which he went was perfect and honestly everything he was saying it was like a light bulb moment. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this course.

First class first aid

I attended the Paediatric First Aid course today at Bowburn Community Centre and I was extremely impressed with the content and the way it was delivered by a very friendly and knowledgeable man named Ian. I have taken first aid courses in the past but none of them compared to the way this course was set out. Very interesting, fun and I would recommend Life Saving Training to anyone.

Absolutely brilliant

Absolutely brilliant. Just finished the 3-day First Aid at Work course. I'm a mental health nurse, and I have to say, this training was above and beyond the first aid training I received as a student!

I took the course to refresh my skills and gain confidence so I could practice First Aid as a volunteer and feel less anxious about addressing first aid issues at work. Not only was it a great refresher and helped me gain more confidence, but I also learned a lot of extremely useful practical skills which I can bring to my work too.

I will be heartily recommending them to everyone I know!

Also, did you know the lungs of the Resus Annie manikins need changing? I didn't, but these folks do! Most providers will have you sharing lungs with others on the course (not just gross, but also a massive infection control issue!), but these folks at LSA give you your own manikin and change those lungs every time.

They also offer to keep you up to date with changes in first aid guidance, which helps keep your practice evidence-based, which is above and beyond what I expected.

Absolutely can't fault them or recommend them enough. Excellent stuff. Cheers!

A life skill that everyone should know

Absolutely fantastic training day for Emergency First Aid at Work. The instructor, Ian, was clear, understanding and kind.

The course content was relevant with great training techniques such as using large gestures to match the actions to ensure a long time memory commitment.

He addressed any concerns we had and any questions with quick, thorough responses to ensure that we knew what we needed to preserve life in an emergency. He gave me confidence on how to proceed in an emergency situation and I learned techniques and information that I otherwise would not have thought of.

I highly recommend this course to everyone - it's a life skill that every single person should be aware of and Life Saving Training are the best people to learn from.

Would recommend!!!

I took part in Basic First Aid training this morning. It was very informative as well as being delivered in a clear and thorough way which will help me remember what to do in an emergency and possibly save someone's life! The trainer (Ian Blackburn) was fantastic and could answer all questions /queries. I feel much more confident knowing that I may not be so useless in an emergency. I would definitely recommend this course. Thank you 😊

First class training!

The training I had with Life Saver Training betters by far the first aid training I received over the years working in the oil and gas industry. Well presented, and the demo materials were brilliant. Can’t recommend these guys high enough, thank you!

I have done many 1st aid courses over the years and I can honestly say that training done by Life Saving Training was exceptional. The company was very accommodating and helpful in creating an extra course for me when I couldn't attend the one I originally booked for which was very impressive. The course itself was great. Ian has a very nice way about him, he is a great teacher and the course was given in very thorough and professional manner. We also learnt few very interesting and very important extra bits and pieces which was great. Highly recommended!

The Best First Aid Training I've Ever Recieved

I've just completed a First Aid course with Life Saving Training. I can honestly say that they a far superior to any other I've taken. Usually the instructor is just going through the motions, but I feel I've learnt a great deal more with Ian. You can tell he's very experienced and highly trained. Not only that, he makes the day fun.

Even their equipment is amazing - the mannequins link to a tablet so your CPR technique can be evaluated.

Top quality First Aid training.

Life Saving Training - a fresh, innovative approach to delivering first aid training

Life Saving Training deliver an innovative, fresh, forward thinking approach to first aid training. Their courses cover a range of topics and environments delivering first class training on subjects many of us have been taught in the past but avoid the more formal, 'paper heavy' format. During our training sessions we learnt exactly what we need to do in an emergency along with quirky methods of remembering the most important facts. I can't recommend these guys enough, they taught us skills we can use not only in the workplace but in our home and social environments too.
