💚 A gentle reminder for our NHS-funded classes 💚

If you have booked onto one of our NHS-funded sessions and find that you’re no longer able to attend, please let us know as soon as possible.

At the moment our classes are fully booked, and sadly that means there are people on waiting lists who are unable to get a place. This morning, only 6 out of 12 booked attendees attended, which unfortunately meant others waiting or unable to book missed out on the opportunity.

We completely understand that things come up and plans change — all we ask is that if you can’t make it, you drop us a quick message so we can offer the space to someone else.

Thank you so much for helping us make these sessions as accessible and fair as possible for everyone 💚

❄️ Snowman Fun + Prizes Up for Grabs! ⛄️

Yesterday, Bri made her very first snowman at the park… and when it was time to leave, she absolutely refused to leave it behind…
So… naturally… I pulled her and her new snowman friend home in the sled 😂 Mum life.

It got me thinking – we’d LOVE to see your snowmen too! And hear about memories made!

📸 How to enter:
• Share a photo of your snowman in the comments – Bri will pick her favourite and the winner will receive a FREE small mini first aid first aid kit
• Or tell us your favourite snowy / winter memory – I’ll pick a winner who’ll receive a gift bag full of first aid goodies

✨ Entries open until next Sunday ✨

Let’s spread some snowy smiles and cosy memories – I can’t wait to see what you share! ❄️💙

I hope everyone has stayed safe today. Bris school declared a snow day and with me having the day off due to another school shutting its doors for safety reasons we headed to the park at 8:30am to make memories ✨
It was then back home to entertain an excited toddler whilst I rang venues and sent emails out.

All classes are still running tomorrow, If anything changes overnight emails will be sent to participants again in the morning.

Email to tomorrows attendees:

Good afternoon all,

As you are aware, the weather conditions are a little unpredictable at the moment. Although the amber warning has now gone and with the current forecast and conditions, most roads are passable and normality is hopefully not too far away!

We wanted to provide you with an update regarding the NHS First Aid classes you’re booked onto due to take place tomorrow in Ellesmere.

We are closely monitoring the current weather conditions and have been in contact with the venue this afternoon and the trainer running the session. As it currently stands, both of tomorrow’s classes WILL be going ahead as planned.

The council have advised that while they are working hard to clear the area, they cannot guarantee that the car park will be fully cleared of snow. This may mean reduced parking spaces and potentially slippery conditions, which is expected in this weather.

They have also confirmed that there is additional parking available on Spa Bridge next to the Town Hall should you require extra space or an alternative option. Please allow extra time and please don’t worry if you arrive late.

If you feel unable to attend due to the weather conditions, please do let us know as soon as possible so we can update our register and make necessary changes should we need to. We completely understand and this is the reason for sending this update in advance.

We will, of course, continue to monitor conditions closely and carry out ongoing risk assessments to ensure everyone’s safety.

Thank you for your understanding, and please take care when travelling.

Kind regards,
Kellie

🌧 Weather Update – Saturday’s Courses 🌧

Please bear with us as we navigate the current storm and weather warnings alongside everyone else.

Your safety is always our top priority. Due to the weather warning, our school booking scheduled for tomorrow has already been postponed.

We are currently trying to contact the venue for Saturday to confirm that they will be open for our two sold-out NHS classes. Our Workplace First Aid course in Shropshire is still planned to go ahead as scheduled.

At this stage, we feel that both Saturday courses will be able to go ahead, however we are awaiting final confirmation from the venue and will continue to monitor the weather closely.

As soon as we have more information, we will update all booked attendees.

Thank you so much for your patience and understanding 🤍

🚨 Most parents hope they’ll never need first aid…

But emergencies don’t come with warnings and when they happen, you might just be the first or only person there.

Taking a Mini First Aid class isn’t about fear. It’s about feeling prepared, calm, and confident just in case.

Here’s what you will gain 👇

You will learn how to stay calm under pressure, so your head doesn’t go blank when your child needs you.

You will feel confident stepping in quickly, knowing exactly what to do when every second counts.

You will start noticing risks you’d never thought about before, and learn simple ways to prevent accidents at home or in your setting.

You will understand the correct first response for common childhood injuries, which can help reduce pain, complications, and recovery time.

You will actually remember what you’ve learned, because our classes are fun, practical, and hands-on.

First aid skills don’t just sit in your head. They give you peace of mind every day.

📍 In-person classes for parents, carers, grandparents & professionals across the UK.
