A Brief History
Where We Started
First Aid Bristol is a family run business that has been training people in first aid for over 15 years. It was started by Indie Lyndale, who has over 30 years' experience as a teacher, lecturer, mountaineering leader and outdoor instructor.
During her time working in various organisations, she experienced poor quality first aid training on countless occasions. There needed to be a different way!
First aid training should be exciting and engaging because responding in an emergency is serious stuff. You need to recall your training clearly, in order to act quickly and confidently. We know from experience, that sitting through long, boring sessions, reading from work books, is not going to lead to long-term learning. That's where we come in.
An Engaging Approach
Practical First Aid
First Aid Bristol brings together Indie's extensive experience in the field, with her experitse as teacher, to create high-impact, quality training which you will remember. This training is fun, and requires you to think on your feet. Our interactive approach uses real-life scenarios, enabling you to put your new skills to the test, in the safety of our supportive learning environment.
Our proactive courses leave trainees feeling confident and invigorated. Many graduates have since contacted us with stories about how their training has come in handy down the line.
