First Aid Training
"Employers have a duty to assess the risks in the workplace. The findings of the first-aid needs assessment can help employers decide whether their first-aiders should be trained in FAW or EFAW or to some other appropriate standard." (HSE)
We aim to adapt your training to reflect possible real life incidents in your industry or activity and better equip you to show that you manage safety in your workplace.
All our training meets the purposes of the Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981 and is compliant with current HSE and SFA training and assessment stipulations.
How to book - IMPORTANT PLEASE READ

SMT Response was born from from a passionate belief that EVERYONE should have the skills to make a difference in a first aid situation.
From a background in Mountain Rescue and remote first aid, we have developed programmes for the first person on the scene of an accident in a range of more down-to-earth locations.
