Completed the first aid course for Forest School. Although a long day in total, so worth it! The course itself was so informative, clearly laid out with a presentation and not rushed. Cover... See more

Excellent training from an excellent trainer

The first aid at work course that I attended was excellent, one of the best courses I have been on in fact. Carolyn was extremely friendly and welcoming, and made all of the examples she used relevant to my job role. She made the content fun and enjoyable, whilst also being extremely informative and useful. Carolyn was very knowledgeable about the subject and was able to answer all questions thoroughly. I went away from the course feeling that I had genuinely learned something, and that I would be confident to use the skills if ever I was required to.

Winterbury Training for First Aid

Excellent First Aid training for both Safety at Work (adults) and Paediatric First Aid. An informative and enjoyable two days learning. Carolyn the trainer was an excellent communicator bringing the course content to life through resources, videos, practical hands on learning, fun, games and quizzes. This interactive teaching approach meant all individuals on the course felt involved and able to learn. Our particular school has been using Winterbury Training for years and years and we would not look elsewhere for the training of our staff and school community.

Fantastic first aid course

I would highly recommend attending a paediatric first aid course with Winterbury. Carolyn was so engaging and very knowledgeable. She used a range of methods to teach the group and shared her own experiences, which helped me retain the information. I had a very enjoyable two days and I'm so pleased I chose to book the course with Winterbury.

Youth Mental Health Course

Really interesting and informative training course on youth mental health. Very much worth it for anyone working with young people in the current climate. Thanks so much to Carolyn for the time spent creating the course and putting the materials together. Very friendly and supportive course, considering some of the heavier content.

Best training ever

I had the most enjoyable (yes I know it sounds odd) first aid training if not any training ever. Carolyn was super informative, engaging, and really knew what she was doing. I tend do drift away internally during boring courses or gathering but this was certainty not the case here. I was absorbing every second of it. Thanks Carolyn.

Excellent safeguarding course

I attended a 3 hour face to face safe guarding refresher course yesterday and enjoyed it because Caroline makes you feel relaxed while giving all the necessary information. There were group discussions as well as short videos to watch and I felt that it gave us a good understanding of all the types of abuse to look out for, how to record it, and when to report it. Also everyone was given a folder full of information that we would find useful and we were sent an email with relevant websites and songs. I would definitely use Winterbury training again.

Great Winterbury Training Course

I arranged a group training course with Winterbury Training at our offices. My emails were responded to in a prompt, friendly and informative way. The course itself was delivered in a professional but fun manner and our trainer was very knowledgeable about the content as well as punctual. She included us a lot with questions and practical tasks which kept interest and focus. I would recommend Winterbury Training courses.

A thoroughly interesting, informative and inspiring day!

Carolyn hosted an amazing second day of the Paediatric First Aid course. Her amusing anecdotes and inspiring insights into the facts she provides makes it so interesting to learn about and remember. She is so thorough with the course content and clearly has an excellent rapport with her 'students'. Very patient and understanding too!

Paediatric First Aid Training

I have just completed my Paediatric First Aider, with Winterbury Training. The course is run over 2 days and consists of both theory and practical training. There is ample opportunity to discuss different medical emergencies and how you would best react in these situations. It was such a valuable course that has given me some skills and the confidence to be able to deal with an accident more effectively. Many thanks Carolyn for this invaluable training.
