Fordingbridge sits in the Avon valley on the north western edge of the New Forest, and almost everything about first aid training here is shaped by distance. Farms, equestrian yards, forestry and land management work, small businesses and the villages spread around them are all a fair way from the nearest emergency department. The person on the scene matters more here than in most places we cover.
We cover Fordingbridge and the surrounding area, including Sandleheath, Damerham, Rockbourne, Breamore, Godshill, Woodgreen, Hyde and out towards Hale. Training runs at your own premises, or your team can join a scheduled course nearby.
First aid courses we run in Fordingbridge
- Emergency First Aid at Work and First Aid at Work, for workplace compliance
- Paediatric First Aid, for nurseries, schools and childcare settings
- Outdoor and Forestry First Aid, made for farm, equestrian and forest work
- CPR and AED training and Basic Life Support
- First aid education for school pupils, with bespoke sessions for school staff
Land based work brings its own injuries, from machinery and livestock to falls and serious bleeding, and those are the ones we spend the time on. Our trainers come from frontline emergency services, healthcare and education, so people finish able to act rather than recite a sequence.
For Fordingbridge businesses with social value or CSR aims, we can arrange funded first aid training in local schools and take care of the delivery, reporting and liaison.
Common questions
Do you come to us in Fordingbridge?
Yes. We deliver on-site at workplaces, schools, farms and yards across Fordingbridge and the Avon valley, and we also run scheduled courses for individuals and small groups.
Do you train farm, equestrian and forestry teams?
Frequently. Outdoor and Forestry First Aid is built for work where an ambulance is a long way off and you may be on your own when it happens.
Which workplace course do we need?
Offices, shops and other lower risk sites usually need Emergency First Aid at Work. Farms, yards and workshops generally need First Aid at Work. Tell us about the work 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 Hampshire page for the full picture.
