16 Hour First Aid Course 2026

We have arranged a 16 hour first aid course for 12 people on w/e 31st January/1st February 2026, to be held locally (not at our boathouse).  This is primarily for our active coaches who need to re-validate but we have 4 spaces left. We are therefore opening up the course to club members. Perhaps you:

  • are a parent spending a lot of time on the bank?
  • are a trainee coach?
  • a paddler?

Then this course could be useful to you and also help us

The cost for is £130 per person for two days for a course aimed at outdoor activities. We used this provider last year for other coaches who needed to re-validate and it was very good.

Please let Dave West or Martin Heywood know ASAP if you want a place. You can reply to our email or comment on our Facebook post.
 
The provider is:
 
Jim Milner BSc. Wilderness Ways 
Survival Instructor (Mil SERE). First Aid/Outdoor First Aid Instructor (FAA/OFQUAL). Wilderness Skills Range Instructor (NCFE).
