Why learn first aid?Learning first aid can help you feel more prepared and able to cope in an emergency situation. For businesses, it can also help manage risks and reduce time lost due to illness or injury. You never know when you might need to help a colleague, friend, family member, or even someone you don't know; we think everyone should have the skills and confidence to act in an emergency. Why train with us?Our first aid and health and safety training supports the British Red Cross' aim to save lives, prevent and reduce suffering, and increase people's wellbeing and resilience. All operating surplus from first aid training goes into our Charity Fund. By choosing us to provide your training, you are helping us achieve our vision of a world where everyone gets the help they need in a crisis. #learnandshareWe trained over 150,000 people in 2016, and we're hoping to reach even more people in 2017 by asking everyone who attends our first aid courses to pledge to share their skills.
Our trainers will be encouraging people to take snaps of themselves with our #learnandshare pledge boards at the end of each course, and share the photos on social media.We are passionate about fitness, and offer fitness equipment hire, sales, and servicing to clients all over the UK.

UNDER THE KNIFE: Mother and daughter free from pain after being treated by same surgeon UNDER KNIFE: Mother and daughter Laura Taylor and Janet Kershaw A MOTHER and daughter are walking tall after the same surgeon operated on them both to relieve symptoms of early-stage arthritis. Nurse Laura Turner, 29, of Bacup, was born with dysplasia, a congenital condition where the hip joint is not aligned and the ball fits into the socket at an angle, resulting in damaged hip cartilage. And her mother Janet Kershaw, 58, a retired nursery nurse from Todmorden, had an operation to replace her kneecaps, after being left in such pain she was barely able to tackle stairs. The pair both went under the knife at the BMI Alexandra Hospital at Cheadle, near Stockport, under consultant Winston Kim. Laura, who is married to supermarket assistant manager Craig and had keyhole surgery, said: “The surgery has made an amazing difference to my life.
“Before it, getting in and out of a car was painful, or even simply sitting in certain positions. Since the operation, the improvement has been huge and I’ve taken up jogging and riding an exercise bicycle.” She had undertaken physiotherapy and undergone injections and courses of painkillers before the surgical procedure. Janet believes that her operation has been life changing, enabling her to go on climbing holidays, take part in a weekly keep-fit class and even complete a 10km charity walk. She said: “In the past I tried physiotherapy, painkillers and injections, but nothing worked for long. The operation has changed my life. I can swim, go on the treadmill and cross-trainer and I attend a weekly keep-fit class.” Mr Kim is a specialist in the treatment of early arthritis of the hip and knee, and has trained in world-renowned centres in the US and Canada. He said: “Cases of hip and knee arthritis are reaching epidemic proportions as the population lives longer.
