We teach you simple, memorable ways to manage whole incidents. Award winning Life Saving Training offers effective, hands on, useful First Aid and Health & Safety training and qualifications. Too many people die every day in the UK who could have potentially been saved by a well trained first aider. Those around them don't know what to do in an emergency. The good news is, it's easy to fix. At Life Saving Training we provide you with simple, memorable ways to help you effectively deal with a range of first aid incidents. We start at the beginning and teach you what you need to know to help someone in need. It's simple really. Life Saving Training is a training centre approved, supported and verified by Immediate Temporary Care (ITC) Ltd. We believe the Ofqual and SQA regulated qualifications we offer are the best available. We don’t believe in baffling you with big words and telling you stories! What we do believe in is teaching you what you need to know to help someone in need. We prepare you for situations that arise in the real world and do it in an engaging, interesting and useful way. After all, that’s what first aid training should be – shouldn’t it? We make learning interesting which helps you learn and remember the skills you need. Our courses are dynamic so you’ll get lots of practice dealing with first aid incidents in our safe training environment. Practicing in this way helps make the skills you need automatic, so you’ll know what to do in a real first aid emergency. And that’s what’s important: getting good quality life saving training that gives you the confidence and the skills to help someone in need.

Super excited to be back with the team at F Ball and Co Ltd in Staffordshire this week!

We’re diving into another Advanced Level First Aid course, including medical gases.

While most first aid qualifications last three years, F Ball has identified the benefit of renewing at the two-year mark.

The logic is simple:

Just because a certificate is valid, doesn't mean skills stay sharp forever.

✅ Increasing training frequency builds deeper muscle memory.
✅ Proactive renewal ultimately provides better protection for the business and its people.

We love working with businesses who prioritise safety! 🙌

Day 2 of our latest Outdoor First Aid course, and things got real. 🏔️

Our learners spent the day tackling complex medical emergencies and traumatic injuries. But here’s the truth: First Aid training is about so much more than a certificate on a wall or ticking a compliance box.

It’s about competence. It’s about the ability to adapt when things go sideways.

By teaching core principles rather than just rigid checklists, we empower our learners to:

✅ Think on their feet.
✅ Stay resourceful under pressure.
✅ Drive positive outcomes for casualties.

Whether you’re on a remote hillside, a construction site, or in a corporate office, our evidence-based training gives you the skills to make a real difference.

If you go down to the woods today… you’ll find some amazing people spending valuable time learning and refreshing life saving skills! 🙌

They all spend some time working outdoors, and are making sure their skills are environment specific so they can look after their colleagues and customers.

Is it time to update your know-how? Make sure your first aid skills and knowledge aren’t stuck in the 90s! 😂

Drop us a message and we’ll bring you up to date! ✅

What’s in your First Aid kit? ⛑️

Here’s a snapshot of what’s in our Life Saving Training outdoor specific first aid kits.

The truth is though, many workplace kits on the market are also inadequate. Office based kits on a construction site? Just no!

🚨 Major Update: Stronger protections for children with allergies in school.

The Department for Education has announced a landmark shift in how allergies are managed in UK schools. Benedict's Law, is set to come into force in September 2026 after a consultation period.

What does this mean for schools?

✅ Spare AAI Pens: Schools must stock spare adrenaline auto-injectors.
✅ Compulsory Training: All staff must receive training on symptom recognition and emergency response.
✅ Dedicated Policies: Every school must have a robust allergy management policy and Individual Healthcare Plans (IHPs).

Lots of schools are already undertaking the necessary training to keep children safe. This guidance will help standardise practise and point to a collection of reliable resources for teachers to use.

Did you know, we also offer a specialist Level 3 qualification in First Aid for Schools and Colleges?

This two day qualification covers both adults and children, saving time compared with having to qualify in both a three day First Aid at Work course and a two day Paediatric First Aid course.

And just get in touch about how we can help with evidence based First Aid training! 👋

Congratulations to Ian - for passing his Advanced Swift Water Rescue re-qualification as part of his voluntary work with Mountain Rescue.

We regularly welcome paddlers, kayakers and other water sport enthusiasts onto our Outdoor First Aid courses (along with plenty of land-based adventurers too).

The experience we gain in real incidents and specialist rescue environments feeds straight back into all the training we deliver.

It helps ensure the skills we teach aren’t just from a manual - they’re also informed by what actually works in the real world.

Who would you rather learn life saving skills from?

Your safety is never an afterthought.

For years, every Life Saving Training course we run has had a real defibrillator on hand, because we believe in leading by example.

Now, we’re proud to unveil our newest addition: the compact, lightweight HeartHero AED. ❤️
