19/07/2024 | A Great course, with great content for the outdoor environment. With a realistic and sensible approach to delivering first aid in the outdoors. Delivered professionally by a highly knowledgeable and experienced instructor. I would highly recommend this course. Testimonial from Craig Jones, Professional and Commercial Sales Manager, Palm Equipment http://www.palm.equipment |
19/07/2024 | Good course. Pete used lots of real life examples, and explained everything with reasoning and logic rather than reciting the handbook. I think this helps the information sink in a bit better. Testimonial from Christopher Hemsley |
19/07/2024 | I thoroughly enjoyed the course - it was really interesting. I like the balance of practical, videos, information and scenarios. I felt like I learnt an awful lot over the two days and will definitely re-book next time. Testimonial from Nicky Edwards, Headteacher |

09/07/2024 | Another fantastic course by Pete. I really like the real life experience and ongoing learning Pete brings to his delivery. An incredibly useful and no nonsense first aid course. Testimonial from Jamie Magee |
27/06/2024 | A fabulously informative and practical course, delivered with a great blend of appropriate, seriousness, humour and humanity. Pete held everyone's attention for the full two days and I'm sure we all left, knowing much more than when we arrived. Testimonial from Richard Usher, Director, Elm Court Energy Services Ltd |
26/06/2024 | Really liked the visuals used and real life situations this makes it more real applying first aid . Key points emphasised and the importance of engaging . Testimonial from Laura Couper |
25/06/2024 | Brilliant course, and Pete is an excellent engaging teacher and keeps things interesting. I felt the key thing that I hadn't got on previous courses was the how/why we need to do things, rather than just what the process is, to enable thorough understanding of the cause-effect (for example CPR and why going too fast/slow is problematic) and to help to properly remember the information. Testimonial from Niamh Lewis |
06/06/2024 | Not all learning is fun! This course, however, has a perfect blend of classroom based, experiential learning and a bit of humour. Testimonial from LEE IRVING |
06/06/2024 | This is a course I always look forward to. I flew back from NZ to attend this course! Incredibly informative. Everyone should do this course and more lives would be saved. Pete is a great speaker with lots of exciting, funny anecdotes and genuinely cares about helping other people. Thanks again, see you next time.

29/05/2024 | The outdoor first aid course provided a great refresher of my first aid skills and was such an improvement on the previous outdoor course I took three years ago in terms of relevance. Pete made the course interesting by providing multiple very relevant examples of different outdoor situations and how these were dealt with which. The equipment supporting the course was fantastic, with smart dummies for CPR practice, vests to practice the Heimlich manoeuvre, examples of outdoor shelters, protection and wound packing.

24/05/2024 | Pete, it was a great course, thank you. Even though I'd done your course before, I still learned new things as well as consolidated and improved knowledge I already had. Also, some of the kit recommendations were helpful. Thank you. Testimonial from Paul Law, Milnthorpe Primary School |

24/04/2024 | As ever a very good course. Pete Cunningham has excellent knowledge and experience of First Aid which is evident in his delivery of the course. Testimonial from David Channing, Mountain Leader and Army Cadet Force Officer |
23/04/2024 | Great first aid course, not once did I feel nothing wasn't explained clearly. I think this was due to Petes personal stories and experiences of the outdoors or just general experience that he or someone he knows has had to apply first aid. From a personal experience, its always better to have a trainer who has genuinely experienced the implementation of first aid first or any course they are delivering first hand and the fact that Pete has had many of these situations, made me feel reassured that, yes it will be stressful. But, taking that breathe and understanding that you can apply first aid to the best of your abilities, even when in the outdoor surroundings, that it is always better to do something, than nothing. Testimonial from Louise Makin, Trainee, Bendrigg Lodge |
12/04/2024 | The use of technology with the CPR equipment and seeing actual incidents on video. This made incidents more relatable and help appreciated the responsibility to be able to do something. Testimonial from Alison (Margaret) Wood, Governor |
25/03/2024 | This course course provided a comprehensive theoretical knowledge base to outdoor first aid. This was linked to practical demonstrations and practice. Video content of actual incidents reinforced the knowledge base. Our trainer was extremely knowledgeable and interesting. A course i would recommend to anyone. Testimonial from William Duncan |
