The Geopark is offering field and forest first aid training for staff and volunteers working on activities in the Charnwood Forest area, and thanks to Lottery funding the places are free!
The training is Emergency First Aid at Work, with additional modules specific to dealing with incidents outdoors, and is fully certificated. We’ve had great feedback from the courses we’ve run so far saying they are informative, relevant, relaxed, and enjoyable.
Each course is a full day and upcoming dates are:
- Monday 13th January
- Monday 10th February
- Monday 14th April
- Friday 9th May.
To check if your organisation is eligible for the training and to book, please contact Helen hsmith@nationalforest.org. Places are limited so get in touch soon!
