Seven QO and one BOK member enjoyed an excellent day of First Aid training provided by Devon OC’s Helen Taylor.

Roger Craddock found the course entertaining, interesting and interactive:

Personally, I felt the collection of advice and anecdotes shared during the day reminded us that, although we rarely use the skills and information you led us through, there are enough occasions arising in our daily lives as well as in an orienteering context to justify regular updates of our knowledge and techniques of First Aid.

Although the course, held at Staplegrove Village Hall last Saturday, had an orienteering bias, each participant received an Emergency First Aid at Work certificate.

Thank you to Devon OC's Helen Taylor for providing the training.
