His qualifications include NVQs in care planning, autism, dementia, diabetes management, mental health, and counselling skills, alongside specialist training in medication handling, safeguarding, and positive behaviour support.

Small changes can make a big difference, and care homes are stepping up for the planet!

A new Environmental Awareness & Sustainability Training is helping care teams reduce waste, save energy and water, and protect the environment we all share.

From composting food scraps to switching off unused lights, staff and residents are working together to build greener, healthier homes.

Whether it’s planting gardens, choosing eco-friendly products, or learning how to handle waste safely, this training is sparking real change — one action at a time.

Let’s care for the planet as much as we care for each other

Making a Great First Impression and Ready When You Need Us!

We’ve just received some feedback from a care home manager we were fortunate to help out at short notice!

At Sure Training, we know that the first training session sets the tone for everything that follows. From the moment our trainers walk through the door, our aim is simple:

✅ Put teams at ease
✅ Deliver engaging, practical learning
✅ Leave staff feeling confident and supported

We’re also proud to be the provider care homes can rely on when plans change. Whether it’s a last-minute request or urgent support to keep compliance on track, we’re here to help.

A huge thank you to the fantastic teams who trust us with their development. We’re excited to continue supporting the sector with training that makes a genuine difference.

With dementia training continuing to be a key focus across local authorities, we’re pleased to be offering mixed sessions for care staff from different homes to join together in our classroom-based Dementia Awareness courses.

✅ Legislation and best practice guidance

✅ Living with dementia – the daily impact

✅ Supporting families and understanding emotional effects

✅ Dementia and mental health

✅ Practical, person-centred approaches to care

Out and about in sunny Hull today!

Our Training Manager, Nik, has been delivering First Aid & Basic Life Support training — a core topic in the care sector and one that can quite literally save lives.

With his trademark energy and engaging style, Nik brings this essential subject to life, keeping every session both informative and entertaining.

It’s always great to see teams building confidence and skills that make a real difference in the moments that matter most.

At Sure Training, we truly thrive on feedback.

Andy received this email from a Deputy Manager we just had to share!

Every comment we receive helps us to reflect, improve, and make sure our training continues to meet the needs of the care sector. While constructive feedback helps us to grow, it’s always a real boost to hear such positive words too.

Knowing that staff not only enjoyed the training but also found it engaging and useful is exactly what we set out to achieve.

What makes this feedback even more special is that it came from a brand-new customer within a national care group, a wonderful start to what we hope will be a long and valued partnership.

A look back at the last 6 months at Sure Training

It’s been an incredible period of growth and hard work for our team, and we’re really proud of what’s been achieved.

✅ We’ve welcomed large care companies like National Care Consortium, Crossroads Group, and Knights Care, also manufacturing companies such as Royal Lemkes to our client list

✅ Continued our relationships with a host of independent care homes, and care providers such as Avalon and Hatzfeld, while also supporting our friends at Wren Kitchens and Nature Wall.

✅ Partnered with North Lincolnshire Council to deliver mixed classroom training with all homes & service providers across the region invited.

✅ Achieved accreditation as a Highfield Centre for First Aid & Mental Health training.

✅ Rolled out new mixed classroom Train the Trainer courses, such as Moving & Positioning, Medication and Fire Marshal & Safety.

✅ Actually went out to see managers and deputies to speak about the challenges they're facing and creating solutions that work for them, rather than sending a list they didn't ask for to choose from.

None of this would have been possible without the dedication and creativity of the whole team! By listening, adapting, and collaborating, we’re proud to be shaping training that truly supports care teams and their communities.

Here’s to the next 6 months of growth, collaboration, and making a difference.

Now that the summer break is all but behind us, we’re finding that training is once again moving back up the priority list for many organisations.

With schools back, childcare no longer pulling staff in different directions, and diaries becoming a little more predictable, it’s a great time to get your whole team together.

Whether it’s Mandatory Training, Complex, HR or Accredited Courses, September is the perfect month to refocus, regroup, and invest in your staff.

If you’re looking to book training this autumn and have returned from your break to a scary inbox, we’d love to help you plan ahead and make it as smooth as possible.
