First Aid Schools Training XP Gateshead CPR

First Aid Training at XP Gateshead

It was fantastic to visit XP Gateshead recently to deliver staff first aid training. XP schools educate their young people with a different philosophy than more traditional schools, putting the child’s individual needs at the heart of everything they do. And that includes first aid training!

We delivered Emergency First Aid at Work training to the amazing staff at XP Gateshead, and had some fantastic feedback:

“Thank you Sam for making the day so enjoyable and for being so enthusiastic and passionate in your delivery.” Katy Horne (Safeguarding Lead)

“Great tutor. Made it fun & really useful doing the scenarios.” Nicky Evans

“A brilliant course delivered in a fantastic way.” Leanne Diamond

Thank you, XP Gateshead!
