Why do I need First Aid at Work training?

Did you know that an estimated 555,000 workers in Britain sustained an injury at work in 2017/18?

The Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981 require all employers to make arrangements to ensure their employees receive immediate attention if they are injured or taken ill at work. This includes carrying out a risk assessment, appointing a suitable amount of first aiders and providing appropriate first aid training. However, having the correct first aid provision in the workplace is not just a legal requirement, it is incredibly important for the safety of all members of staff!

I have been doing First Aid courses for over a decade and this is genuinely the best one I’ve ever been on. Del went into things in a depth I’ve never experienced before, so I now have a far better understanding of why we do things the way we do, which helps me remember and feel more confident. Brilliant!

Simone

We put 18 of our team through First Aid training at CATCH and everyone remarked afterwards what an excellent course it was. Del did a great job in bringing what could have been quite a dry subject to life through engaging, practical examples and group participation. That, coupled with the usual CATCH hospitality of a great lunch and a visit to see the goats(!) made it a great day all round!

I found the first aid course very informative, educational and fun but also serious. The location for the course is fantastic!
