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!

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!
