This morning we have been out early to deliver an Accredited and Regulated Emergency First Aid At Work course for a waste management company in Lytham near Blackpool.

They were a great bunch that made me laugh with how funny they are around one another, sometimes I miss the ‘banter’ when working alone, today I felt part of your team, so thank you for that 💙

On Thursday night we had the privilege of attending the Red Rose Awards, where I was honoured to be named a finalist for the New Business Award.

While it wasn’t Paradigms name called on the night, being recognised alongside so many inspiring businesses from across Lancashire was a proud moment and a reminder of how much innovation, hard work and ambition exists within our business community.

We were seated at a table with some remarkable people, and we had one award make it back to our table too🥇

Congratulations to all of the incredible winners and fellow finalists — your achievements are well deserved and it was fantastic to celebrate success together.

Running a business is a journey filled with challenges, learning and growth. Moments like this reinforce why we keep pushing forward, striving to improve, and continuing to support the people and organisations we work with.

A huge thank you to the organisers for such a fantastic evening and for recognising businesses that are making a difference.

Onwards and upwards. 💪 💙

This week we delivered a 3 day First aid at work course for Jigsaw, Cumbria's Children's Hospice in Carlisle. Before turning up on Wednesday I felt I had to mentally prepare with this being a children’s hospice, however I wish I knew that I didn’t have to.

The team there are super friendly, and made me instantly feel welcome and comfortable. They are an incredible group and I had a lot of fun delivering this course for them all.

Thank you Eden Valley Hospice for making me feel so welcome 🙏 💙 You are a passionate group of people who have a special gift in making people feel comfortable and welcome 💙

Why Paradigm First Aid Training | North West is different 🧠🚑

Before first aid, my background was in education, training, and developing new coaches. One of the core models I taught was Bloom’s Taxonomy – a trusted framework for turning knowledge into real-world skills and behaviours.

Here’s the problem I see in a lot of first aid training ⬇️
Most providers stop at “understand”.
Learners can recall information… but struggle to use it when it really matters.

At Paradigm First Aid Training, Bloom’s Taxonomy is woven into everything we do:

✔️ We apply learning in realistic scenarios
✔️ Learners practise and refine new skills, not just watch them
✔️ We evaluate decisions under pressure
✔️ Peer teaching is used to deepen confidence and competence
✔️ Scenarios are adapted and redesigned to introduce variables you’d actually face in real life

The result?
Training that goes beyond ticking a box — and builds confidence, capability, and calm when it counts.

Because knowing what to do is one thing.
Being able to do it is what saves lives.

This week we have been at the amazing WWT Martin Mere Wetland Centre delivering a two day First aid at work re qualification for their team.

It’s such an amazing place to have the pleasure to deliver at, especially with it being so local for us too. Local businesses, supporting one another at the heart of this work relationship 🦆 💙 thank you for choosing Paradigm first aid for your training needs

This week marked an exciting milestone for Paradigm.

I delivered a two-day internal Train the Trainer programme, expanding our provision to include trainer development alongside our established training services.

Drawing on over 15 years’ experience in education and training, the programme focused on practical delivery skills — planning effective sessions, understanding learner needs, confident communication, giving constructive feedback, and supporting trainers to develop their own style.

It was a genuinely rewarding experience to support the development of new trainers and to return to an area of work I care deeply about: building confident, competent training professionals.

I’m looking forward to continuing to develop this provision and supporting organisations who want to invest in the quality of their internal training delivery.

Last week, I attended my own First Aid at Work Requalification in Telford ✅

For Paradigm First Aid Training Limited, this isn’t just a tick-box exercise. To deliver accredited and regulated training, it’s essential that I not only maintain my own qualifications, but also stay fully up to date with industry changes and upcoming updates, several of which are coming into effect imminently.

Regular requalification ensures:

✅ Continued compliance with awarding body and regulatory requirements

⭐ Awareness of best practice and evolving guidance

💙 Training that is current, credible, and fit for today’s workplaces

For businesses, choosing a first aid provider shouldn’t be based on convenience or cost alone. It’s about credibility, compliance, and confidence that your training genuinely meets legal and professional standards.

That’s why working with a provider who actively invests in their own professional development really matters. 💪

This 👇 is what makes me tick as an individual. 💙

Yesterday I had the pleasure of delivering an Enrichment session for the year 5 at Lordsgate Township CE Primary School in Burscough for their PSHE curriculum on First aid.

Not only was this the proudest moment, having my little boy be part of the session, but he also wanted to get involved to peer to peer teach too. 👦 👨 he was so proud to have his dad there, I was so proud having my son next to me, demonstrating my passion for first aid in front of his class-mates. 🥹

Today was the icing on the cake when the year 5 took it upon themselves to make me a thank you card, signed by the class. ❤️

I love my job, I love my company, and I love it when I can do something community focused.

For me, I want children’s first taste of first aid training to be an enjoyable one, with smiles on their faces.

This is what Paradigm first aid values are all about 💙
