Outdoor First Aid
A really useful, well delivered course giving the skills needed to deal with a potentially dangerous situation.
Brilliant course
I completed a two day outdoor first aid course for my job as a geography teacher, I cannot recommend this course provider enough. Alan was brilliant, made the content very easy to understand and very enjoyable.
All and more than I hoped for
All and more than I hoped for. I aim to do as many outdoor pursuits as possible and feel safer and more confident as a result. Alan 100% made this course so much fun and his knowledge and delivery are second to none!

I did the Outdoor First Aid weekend…
I did the Outdoor First Aid weekend course with First Aid Academy and was really impressed.
Every minute was packed with important information, delivered in a variety of memorable ways - slides, stories, demonstrations, videos, pictures and practical sessions.
With such long days (9am-6pm) and so much content to get across, the course could have been a slog - but the instructor (Maggie) kept the energy really high throughout with patience and good humour.
Maggie was also great at answering questions and gave space to other course attendees to share their experiences, which was useful to hear.
A brilliant course. Thank you!
Alan is fab!
Alan is fab! He had so many ways to make the information memorable and made the course so enjoyable to be on. I feel so much more confident with my skills now.
Best FA course ever
Best first aid course I’ve ever been on! Alan is so knowledgeable and really knows how to make the course interesting and enjoyable. I didn’t want to stop at the end of the course
Best first aid course ever attended
Best first aid course I have ever attended. The instructor was very knowledgeable and we were given plenty of opportunities to practice what we were learning. I feel better prepared than I have from any other first aid course I have taken.
Well delivered course…

Alan delivered an excellent course
Alan delivered an excellent course, very professionally, and with very interesting content together with a really good balance between theory and practical.
Outdoor First Aid 14/15 October 2021
A first class course, very instructive and enjoyable. Alan uses the benefit of his personal experience to deliver a course that keeps his audience engaged and focused. He is clearly passionate about his subject and provides a high level of training equipment and opportunities for practical experience. Highly relevant for those of us working outside in remote locations, I can not recommend this training highly enough.
Excellent course
Excellent course, great practical content ,tutor was very good ,clear and concise with an emphasis on the practical and anecdotal references making it ‘very real ‘
Having been a pupil of First Aid for 35 years I can highly recommend both Tutor and Course .
