Body & Mind First Aid Training  Reviews 28

Always A Rifleman is a fantastic group of people dedicated to supporting our armed forces and their family & friends. Not many people know they exist but the work they have been doing has already reduced suicide by 2/3!!!!
Despite being a civilian, the Riflemen took me under their wing and I was proud to be with an amazing group of supportive people. I learned more about the struggles that veterans have after leaving the army and how that can be related to civilian struggles too. Just having the knowledge has already made me a stronger person.
It is a very dark subject and was quite an emotional journey. The course was delivered by Kevyn Diggles at a good pace with the support of his fellow Riflemen trainers Baz Melia & Tommy.
Thank you for giving me this fantastic opportunity. Now to put what I have learned into practice.

Thanks all out of all the courses that I have been on. This one I can truly say was the best. But it also made me realise that I could not complete what I wanted to do I still today feel miffed that I was unable to be with my brothers in the conflict arenas. Maybe in another lifetime I was able to do that. Once again it is with great satisfaction and joy to attend this course thank you all for making me feel inclusive of the group. Once a rifle man always a chosen man 🤔🥃👍🏿

This course is invaluable. You will understand yourself and those around you so much better allowing you to be aware, compassionate and effective.

There was a real sense of purpose and inclusion. An understanding of the importance of the subject and the worth of the qualification. It was an honour to participate.

Absolutely amazing course, A real insight into the metal health space and great knowledge to help with a crisis, would fully recommend this to your place of work for employees 5 stars

Fantastic course ....great venue .....instructor was excellent in her delivery and the practical element was brilliant......very reasonably priced too.

This is the second course I have attended with Body & Mind first aid and both have been conducted at the very highest level. The venues are great and the instructors hade been highly experienced and excellent at delivering the material. Book your training with confidence with Body & Mimd.

Great course, professionally run by great instructor. Realistic scenarios and equipment. I highly recommend anyone looking to learn first aid using body and mind.

The course instructor was very confident with great knowledge and real life experience. Good kit and equipment with a great setup and hospitality from the brewery. Thank you to body and mind and everyone involved with the planning and preparation. Flawless. I would highly recommend this course.

The course content and the quality of instruction was excellent. The instructor was well knowledgable in the subject and delivered it in an excellent way making the course enjoyable and relatively stress free.

Met John through the Always A Rifleman Program and honestly one of the best lads and course instructors I have met. Would fully recommend him and the company

I can’t praise Body and Mind First Aid enough for their professional yet personal approach. The course was structured and delivered at a well balanced pace allowing for sharing and reflections. Would most certainly recommend them for future training.

I attended a 2 day First Aid for Mental Health course over a weekend.

John is to be commended for his professionalism and his genuine care and interest for all the candidates on the course. He obviously plans meticulously, as this was evident in the quality of instruction delivered throughout.

His approach to the topics covered (some quite sensitive in nature) generated a warm and close rapport. John has passion for the content and communicative skills in abundance. He was excellent in delivering the course to a a broad range group of mixed abilities.

I cannot recommend him highly enough and will be a ‘go to’ for any course requirements in the future. Sincere thanks John.

Extremely efficient and reliable service provided by John and the team. We needed an in house course delivering for a group of managers within our business and Body & Mind organised everything for us including a suitable training room and lunch (very important!). They were flexible and responsive in their communication and ensured that the course was suitable for our needs.

I attended a Level 3 Supervising First Aid for Mental Health Course on 15/16 January 2022.

The guys delivered an interesting and enlightening course, involving all of those who attended.

Everyone on the course was (like me) Ex Army (or had military connections) and I’d recommend this course to anyone.

John and his team ran a First Aid Course for us and from initial contact to receiving certificates for the group, the communication and professionalism throughout was exceptional.
All course resources and equipment were of high quality and the teaching of the content was first class. Instructors were very knowledgeable but kept it very engaging.

Cannot rate highly enough. John has delivered first aid courses for members of our teams on a number of occasions now as well as personal licence courses. As always they are delivered in a way in which we could engage freely and are broken up in different sections to help us digest the information with ease. Good value for money and delivered efficiently whilst still maintaining professionalism throughout the day. Would highly recommend to others!

John came and did a First Aid course for my team and nothing was too much trouble. He was professional, fun but focused and made sure everyone was 100% confident before moving on with each section. Would recommend in a heartbeat!

Absolutely brilliant course I throughly enjoyed it. Learned a lot from John and his team. It was a thoroughly engaging weekend of learning and taught me a lot more about mental health. I’d fully recommend these guys.

We use John Body and Mind for both first aid and personal licence training as well as mental health training. Always good value for money, professional and knowledgeable. Highly recommended by us at Heebie Jeebies, The Jacaranda and Phase One. They are always a pleasure to deal with.
