Worthy of a five star rating
I recently attended a Mental Health Awareness course with Lifeline. This is the second course I have attended through this company, the first being an EFAW course. Yet again Andrew proved to be not only extremely knowledgeable and professional, but patient and empathetic, with a nice way of involving the participants without making them feel awkward or embarrassed. I highly recommend this company and would not think of using any other training company should the need arise.

GREAT
Had my first, first aid course today and it was thoroughly enjoyable. The trainer who was named Kynan was very friendly, made us feel at ease while giving us lots of information throughout the day and was open to as many questions as we wanted to ask. Come away feeling a lot more confident knowing if an incident happened I’d be able to help someone in need. Highly recommend anyone to go on a course with life line training and I am definitely going to look into more training they have on offer. Thanks again

Outstanding course
Outstanding course after a few lapsed years of my first aid qualification, the instructor was well engaging and informative throughout the 3 day duration. the updates and the amendments were outlined in great detail to past regulations.
The kit and equipment was of the highest quality and in great supply to meet the needs of the group.
Handouts and the course materials and media were exceptional and easy to follow allowing the instructor to elaborate and talk in depth of the modules being taught
