Outdoor & Forest School First Aid Training Description

Please note that the outdoor first aid training location for this course may require a drive from the classroom training location. Please contact us before booking if you will be arriving using public transport. We can usually arrange transport to the outdoor first aid training.

Outdoor First Aid for forest schools and other outdoor activities involving children and adults.

NOTE: this is a 16 hour course split over 2 days: 8 hours per day. This is a longer day than most other first aid courses.

IMPORTANT: please bring suitable clothing and footwear. Some of the first aid training is delivered outdoors (even in bad weather).

The course syllabus includes all the skills and knowledge required in the following nationally recognised qualifications:

Emergency First Aid at Work (6 hour)
Paediatric First Aid (12 hour)
Outdoor and Forest School First Aid (16 hour)

The certificate is valid for all 3 first aid qualifications.

The training covers adult, child, and baby casualties.

This course meets the requirements of various national governing bodies such as: British Association of Snowsport Instructors, British Canoeing/Paddle UK, British Cycling, Lowland and Mountain Leader, and others but please check your specific governing body/insurance requirements and contact us to discuss if you are unsure of compliance.

On open/public courses we have identified suitable areas within walking distance but for private courses (at your own venue) we need to discuss this in detail: not all workplaces will be in a suitable location for this course to be delivered.

- The importance of preventing cross infection
