Free First Aid refresher training
October 26th 2009

St John Ambulance is offering annual refresher training FREE for a limited period with each First aid at work course.

With over 128,850* reported accidents a year in the workplace, the Health and Safety Executive’s new guidance, introduced on 1 October, is an important reminder to keep first aiders’ life saving skills sharp and avoid skills fade. One of the main changes is the HSE’s strong recommendation for Annual refresher courses to maintain a first aiders skills.

St John Ambulance is strongly supporting this initiative by offering the first Annual refresher FREE to companies that book a full First aid at work course and at half-price to companies that book an Emergency first aid at work course before the end of the year.

To check which course is right for you and to see if you comply with new guidance, go to the St John Ambulance First aid needs review or use the Workplace training guide.
