First Aid & Health & Safety Training

Whether you need qualified first aiders in your workplace or everyday life, or statutory health and safety training , we have the course for you.

We provide a range of courses across the UK to ensure that your business meets Health and Safety Executive (HSE) compliance requirements.

Our regulated training courses can be delivered exclusively to groups of individuals at your premises, so for more information on the courses available, see below or please get in touch for a full consultation.

We run everything from our HSE and First Aid Industry Body (FAIB) approved first aid and related training, to manual handling awareness courses, including training in the safe use of EVAC+Chairs for groups of 4 operators or Key trainer staff. Our customers include G4S security, Glenmorangie, NHS, Historic Environment Scotland (HES) and a number of Councils. That doesn’t mean we are too big to forget about our roots, as we have regular customers in the employability sector, small companies and many customers we have served for the last 15 years, who keep coming back because they value our no-nonsense, simple to understand training courses (hint-we don’t do mnemonics or acronyms).

We also don’t do distance (Blended) learning for any of our courses, as we firmly believe our delegates can’t learn important subjects by just clicking a mouse on a computer.

Neither can training be effective by just watching a video.

Our manual handling awareness (MHA) and Safer People handling awareness (SPHA) courses are designed by a RoSPA trained professional to assist those working both in an industrial environment and in a care sector environment to safely assist patients and clients move around in their daily life with a minimum of friction and upset.

All courses are usually run at the client’s premises, using their own equipment with their own staff present, to allow for a familiar setting.

First Aid Scotland runs all our courses throughout Scotland, from Glasgow, Edinburgh, and Stirling to our regular clients in Inverness and Wester Ross (not Westeros, that’s not a real place) to Jedburgh and Dumfries in the Scottish Borders. We’re not just a name, we really are a truly Scotland-wide company.
