We are delighted to offer this tailored 1 day first aid course to our members. The course is primarily an educational programme aimed at the rider and driver community with the focus on contributing to the reduction in the number of KSI (killed and seriously injured) incidents. The objective is to give participants a better understanding of what to do if they come across a road traffic collision and how to manage it safely.

There are 3 main modules:

 1.      Incident Management – Don’t panic, managing the scene, assess casualties, etc

2.      First Aid & Trauma – dealing with head and spinal injuries, major bleeds & amputations

3.      Practical Scenario Assessments
