World Maternal Mental Health Day - an opportunity to raise awareness and advocate for better support and help for mums who want or need to access care.

We’re proud to have worked alongside the National Childbirth Trust (NCT) for many years as their preferred first aid training provider. As the UK’s leading charity for parents, NCT shares our mission to empower families, and together we help parents gain the confidence and skills they need to keep their little ones safe.

In this guest blog, the NCT explores an important topic that affects many families – perinatal depression.

At Mini First Aid, we believe that supporting families goes far beyond teaching lifesaving skills – it’s about helping parents feel co...

“I’d had CPR training through work years earlier, but you never expect to use it,” Ryan said. “You just act on instinct. In those moments, doing something is always better than doing nothing.”

Yes! We say this all the time - doing something is always better than nothing when it comes to CPR. As this story demonstrates, you just never know when you might be the first on the scene of an emergency.

Without immediate CPR, a person’s chance of surviving an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest falls by around 10% with every minute that passes.

Most people would say they have heard of sepsis, but when asked whether they know the signs and symptoms, the answer is different.

At Mini First Aid, we educate about sepsis in all of our first aid classes. It's something we take very seriously because sepsis claims the lives of 50,000 people in the UK every single year.

Last week, our founder Kate was at the Houses of Parliament for a reception with our charity partners The UK Sepsis Trust. Hosted by the brilliant sepsis survivor ‘Bionic Peer’ Lord Craig Mackinlay, together with Harry Redknapp, Melissa Mead MBE and actor Jason Watkins. An incredible gathering of people, all focused on saving lives. The stories were so moving.

Thank you to Dr Ron Daniels BEM and Sarah Hamilton-Fairley for filling a room with health care professionals, passionate educators, those with lived experience of sepsis, and government representatives who truly care about the future of sepsis research, education and treatment.

This event really drove home how important our work in raising sepsis awareness in the community through our first aid classes really is, and we continue to support The UK Sepsis Trust wherever we can.

There is no exact schedule for teething but this is a guide to when you can expect your little one’s milk teeth to emerge.

Teething can feel like quite a stressful time for baby and parent but it’s a totally natural process that all babies go through.

Symptoms of teething include:

🦷 A sore red gum where the new tooth is coming through.
🦷 A mild temperature of less than 38C.
🦷 A rash on your baby’s face.
🦷 A cheek which is flushed on one side – this will be where the tooth is cutting through.
🦷 Rubbing an ear.
🦷 More dribble than usual – this can be enough to saturate several dribble bibs and sets of clothing in one day so don’t be alarmed!
🦷 Your baby might want to gnaw and chew on things a lot, including your finger.
🦷 Irritability.
🦷 Interrupted sleep.

Read lots more about teething, including tips on how to help your baby, on this week’s Mini First Aid blog, available now at the link in our profile 💚

You know you need to learn first aid for your job, but do you know which first aid course or qualification you need?

Choosing the right First Aid course for your workplace can feel confusing. Different roles, different risks, different legal requirements and trying to decode acronyms like EFAW, PFA, and FAW.

Our Quality Assurance & Compliance Manager at Mini First Aid has written a clear guide to help you make an informed decision. So if you’re a school leader, nursery manager, childminder, business owner, SIA licence holder, or responsible for health and safety in any workplace, we’ll help you understand exactly what you need.
