what size room

What size room?   

We have delivered first aid training courses in workshops, barns, castles and stately homes; even forests and yurts.  ​ All we need is enough room for half the course to lie on the floor and the other half to have space to move around them safely.  ​ We bring matts and plastic sheets to keep every one comfortable.  ​ Electricity is useful but we can deliver a course without. Access to a toilet is alway good.

Don't have space

We don't have space?   

No problem your local knowledge will help us find a venue, a local hall, hotel or collaberating with other local business and organisations. Local venues often cost from about £85 to £150 a day.  If you are near Fort William we often use Kilmallie Free Church, depending on the room hired this costs from £85 to £150 per day for a modern, spacouse venue with amazing views down the loch.
