AI summary of reviews

Practical, real-life scenarios give attendees opportunities to practise first aid, make mistakes safely and build confidence for situations at work, particularly in forest-school settings. They describe the trainer as knowledgeable, patient, approachable and entertaining, with clear explanations, relevant stories, discussion and a well-balanced mix of theory and hands-on learning. The content is comprehensive, engaging and easy to retain, though several attendees would prefer a warmer venue with genuine woodland space for scenarios.

Overall it was good, but it could have been condensed to a 1 day refresher. The course should be more updated, including people of different ethnicities showing different signs (pale, ashy, include photos). Also stroke symptoms for men and women. Generally more outdoor scenarios since it's an outdoor course.

Everything was great the trainer talked us through everything we asked and I loved the true stories to give us an idea of what happens in emergency’s.

Might be better in a venue with more woodland. Danny the trainer was fantastic and accommodated my physical needs. (Waiting for new knees)

Good range of topics covered relevant to what we need as forest school leaders. Good amount of practical scenarios to practice skills. Venue not great - facilities weren’t great and no woodland to practice scenarios in the same environment that we are working in.

Since it is forest school first aid, it would be good to have done the training in woodland rather than indoors.
