Isn’t just a box.

01 — The kit

Every workplace has one on the wall. Very few have someone who knows exactly what to do with it.

It’s the four minutes before help arrives.

02 — The gap

Brain damage can begin four minutes after a cardiac arrest. The average UK ambulance takes seven or more.

Open it with confidence.

03 — The training

Ofqual-regulated, HSE-compliant courses delivered at your workplace — no travel, no venue, same-day certificates.

600+ courses delivered across London and Kent. We train at your workplace, on a date that suits your team.

Every minute without a trained first aider on site is a liability your business doesn’t need to carry.

1,864

UK workers injured at work every single working day — 680,000 last year. (HSE 2024/25)

40M

Working days lost to workplace injury and ill health in 2024/25. Every absence has a direct cost.

4 min

Until a cardiac arrest can cause permanent brain damage. A trained first aider bridges that gap.

Questions

Answered honestly

It's a legal requirement. The Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981 require all employers to provide adequate first aid provision. The number of trained staff depends on your workforce size and risk level. Failing an HSE inspection can result in fines and enforcement notices. We're happy to advise exactly what your business needs — no obligation.
Absolutely — this is the most common question we get. The 6-hour EFAW is ideal for lower-risk environments or businesses needing basic cover. The 2-day Paediatric First Aid is required for nurseries, childminders, and childcare settings. The 3-day First Aid at Work is the full qualification required for most designated first aiders in medium-to-large workplaces. Call us and we'll tell you exactly what you need in under 5 minutes.
No problem. We can arrange back-to-back sessions or run consecutive days to cover larger teams. Many businesses use this to train in shifts so operations aren't disrupted. Just tell us your headcount and we'll work out the most cost-effective option for you.
Nothing at all. Our instructor brings everything: manikins, AED trainers, bandages, and all materials. You just need to provide a suitable room with enough floor space for practical exercises — a conference room or break room usually works perfectly. We'll confirm the specifics when you book.
In most cases we can schedule your course within 1–2 weeks. If you have an urgent compliance deadline — an upcoming audit, an Ofsted visit, or a certificate that's already expired — call us directly and we'll do everything we can to fast-track your booking.
Yes — all qualifications are Ofqual-regulated and HSE-compliant, recognised across the UK. Certificates are valid for 3 years and are accepted by the HSE, Ofsted, and local authorities. We've never had a client fail an inspection because of our certificates.
