First Start

First Start Learn from the best!First aid training delivered by an experienced Emergency Care Nurse & NHS Trainer Hey I'm Chloe, Founder and Trainer at First Start.

Learn vital first-aid skills from an Expert in their field who has had hands-on experience of everything she teaches and really knows what they are talking about. I'm Chloe, a Registered Nurse, NHS Trainer, Mum of 3 and your local exclusive NCT Trainer for Colchester. To date I have trained over 600 people and every single one of these people would recommend me and my training. I offer a fantastic range of training options from parenting first-aid to accredited first-aid to being able to create 'bespoke' training just for you. I will advise you on the best training for you and your current situation, then I will deliver the training session on site at a time that suits you. I am passionate about teaching and empowering individuals, my favourite quote 'no question is a silly question,' and 'first-aid really doesn't have to be complicated for you to make a difference.'

Refresher Training Matters

🔄 Is Your First Aid Training Still Valid? 🔄

First aid skills fade over time — and certificates expire.

Regular refresher training:
• Keeps skills sharp
• Maintains compliance
• Builds ongoing confidence

First Start offers refresher courses to keep your team ready.
