Wareham sits at the gateway to Purbeck, between the Frome, the heath and Wareham Forest. It is a small town with a big rural and visitor catchment, taking in holiday parks, campsites, forestry and land management work, farms and the businesses that keep it all running through the season. A lot of that work happens well away from a road, which is exactly when first aid training earns its keep.
We cover Wareham and the surrounding area, including Sandford, Stoborough, Ridge, Bere Regis, Wool, East Lulworth and out towards Corfe Castle. Training takes place at your own site, or your team can join a scheduled course nearby.
First aid courses we run in Wareham
- 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 forest, heath and remote site work
- CPR and AED training and Basic Life Support
- First aid education for school pupils, with bespoke sessions for school staff
Remote work changes the priorities. Catastrophic bleeding, casualty handling and keeping someone stable while an ambulance finds you all matter more when the nearest road is a field away, so we give them proper time. Our trainers come from frontline emergency services, healthcare and education.
For Wareham businesses with social value or CSR aims, we can arrange funded first aid training in local schools and handle the delivery, reporting and liaison.
Common questions
Do you come to us in Wareham?
Yes. We deliver on-site at workplaces, schools, campsites and rural settings across Wareham and Purbeck, and we also run scheduled courses for individuals and small groups.
Do you train forestry and outdoor teams?
Regularly. Forestry and Outdoor First Aid is designed for exactly this kind of ground, where help is not close and you may be working with few people around.
Which workplace course do we need?
Lower risk sites usually need Emergency First Aid at Work. Land based, industrial or larger workplaces need First Aid at Work. Tell us about the work and we will point you to the right one.
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.
