First aid training in Christchurch has to suit a town that changes character street by street. The quay, the harbour and the summer visitor trade sit alongside care homes, schools, offices and the business parks out towards the A338. The need underneath all of it is the same. If someone collapses or is badly hurt, the person standing nearest has to know what to do.
We cover Christchurch and the area around it, including Mudeford, Highcliffe, Burton, Purewell, Somerford, Walkford, Bransgore and out towards Hurn. Training can take place at your own premises, or your team can join one of our scheduled courses nearby.

Christchurch has an older population than most of the county, and a large care and hospitality sector to go with it. That shapes what people ask us for, with CPR, choking and falls coming up again and again. Our trainers come from frontline emergency services, healthcare and education, so a course here is about being able to act rather than pass a test.
If you run a Christchurch business with social value or CSR goals, we can fund first aid training for nearby schools on your behalf and handle the delivery, reporting and school liaison.
Common questions
Do you come to us in Christchurch?
Yes. We deliver on-site at workplaces, care settings and schools across Christchurch and the surrounding villages, and we also run scheduled courses for individuals and small groups.
Do you train care homes and hospitality teams?
Often. Care providers, hotels, pubs and visitor attractions make up a good share of the training we do along this stretch of coast, and we tailor the scenarios to the setting.
Which workplace course do we need?
Offices, shops and other lower risk sites usually need Emergency First Aid at Work. Larger or higher risk workplaces need First Aid at Work. Tell us about your setting and we will point you to the right course.
Based in the New Forest, we also cover the rest of the county. See our first aid training in Dorset page for the full picture.
