We ♡ Turning People into Heroes

Confidence is our weapon of choice. Here's how we do it...

Realistic, engaging and relaxed first aid courses

By providing a relaxed training environment, delegates are more likely to interact and ask questions.

This ensures that delegates go away feeling more confident and are therefore more prepared to help and assist with emergencies both inside and outside the workplace.

One of the reasons that over 98% of the 100,000+ first aiders we have trained rate us as excellent.

Call our team on 0330 335 1234 to find the best course for you.

Defib included as standard on every course

With an increasing amount of defibs (AEDs) in workplaces and the community we train everyone to feel confident in using them.

Together we are working towards reducing the 250 people that die every day of sudden cardiac arrest in the UK.

We're on a mission to fill the UK with Superheroes-on-Standby!

Baby and child first aid covered as standard

Training choking and resuscitation of babies and children as standard.

Even if workplaces don’t have children onsite, our first aiders can have confidence at home too.

The more confident the first aider - the better they will be in an emergency.

See our latest advice on first aid for children now.

Tests banished to concentrate on practical time

Having no stressful tests on courses, so we can concentrate on confidence building practice time.

That's why we guarantee that everyone that trains with us will leave as a confident first aider, or we will refund & retain for free!

This was by far the best First Aid course that I have attended. The course was held in a great place, free parking and even lunch included! The instructor used real life experiences and encouraged us to share our own, in order to help us to learn about the skills required to be a first aider. He made us feel totally at ease, even when we completed the course by acting out multiple casualty scenarios. Thank you very much SkillBase!
