Tony Clough First Aid Training

09/04/2025

I'm raising funds for a cause close to my heart. My Granddaughter has recently been diagnosed has being Autistic. This was a long drawn out 3 year process. Nevertheless, she will have a life long challenges of neurodiversity and I just want to help her and others within this world.

My life long fear is heights. Heights terrify me. So I have decided to do a tandem skydive. I will sit on the threshold of an open aeroplane door at 10,000 feet and do a leap of faith. Some people do this for fun but this is a massive challenge for me. If you do feel you want to support me I have included a link to my 'Just Giving' page.

I've been retired a month and all six of the QCPR Laerdal manikins are getting restless. They had a meeting this morning and put a transfer request in. They're fed up of sitting on the bench and require a good trainer to take them on. I've put a transfer fee on them of £150.00 each (less than half the price I bought them 2 seasons ago).

We're based in Leeds and would prefer a local trainer in the north of England to take them on, for either collection or meet halfway. Price of postage is ridiculous.

RETIRED.

Finally, after 50 years of work, I've retired.

1975 - 1976 - British Rail Signal & Telecommunications apprenticeship (Not for me, I had to get up far too early)

1976 - 1979 - Earnest J George Stocktaking chemist shops. (Not thieving! Valuing stock)

1979 - 2009 - West Yorkshire Fire Service (Loved the job, being a sex-symbol, but ended up with PTSD)

2009 - 2024 - Tony Clough FIRST AID TRAINING Ltd - (I became a successful businessman- loved the teaching, hated the paperwork)

Other voluntary contributions
- Community first responder - didn't do a bad job, I managed to get 2 x Royal Humane Society Certificates of Resuscitation, regional winner and national finalist at the Vodafone Life Saver Awards and commendations from West Yorkshire Ambulance.
- Gamesmaker at 2012 London Olympics (Loved it - part of medical teams at the aquatic centre)

Regrets
- Volunteering for First Aid Africa. Was going to Malawi for 6 weeks to teach first aid to jungle communities but didn't go because of anxiety of Black Mamba snake (most venomous snake), big spiders and fear of hippopotamus attacks

So, thank you employment world for having me, but I'm still a full-time Grandad dedicated to Jessica, Emily, Jacob and Isabelle
