I attended a First Aid at Work course with Dave Corrigan. He's a wonderful trainer, hugely experienced and gave excellent demonstrations. I enjoyed both days following the eLearning and really feel able to put his advice into practice. I would definitely recommend this training and the Skills Training Group.
