    Jenny Lee

    I did the emergency first aid at work (EFAW) one day course. I did it as I’m a line dance instructor & wanted to feel more confident in dealing with an accident or medical problem during my classes. The course was exactly what I wanted – it was extremely well organised, a great mix of theoretical & practical work, left me with the confidence to manage an emergency or accident, & great value for money. I highly recommend this course.
