Today, on Purple Day, let's raise awareness about epilepsy and how to respond effectively during a seizure. Our courses are designed to help you recognise different episode types and ensure the person’s safety by protecting their head and clearing the surrounding area.

It’s crucial to time the seizure accurately while avoiding common mistakes like restraining the person or putting anything in their mouth. After the seizure, placing them safely on their side and calling emergency services if needed can make all the difference.

Empower yourself with this essential knowledge—because knowing how to act can save lives. Join us to spread awareness and get in touch to book your training to learn these life-saving skills!

Did you know that strokes remain one of the leading causes of death and disability worldwide? Today is Stroke Prevention Day and it’s crucial to remember that early recognition and action can save lives. That’s why our training courses focus on the powerful FAST acronym: Face drooping, Arm weakness, Speech difficulty, and Time to call emergency services.

Learning these signs and others such as sudden numbness, confusion, or severe headaches can make all the difference in a critical moment.

Our courses also cover long term reduction of risk factors such as high blood pressure and maintaining a healthy lifestyle which can make a significant difference.

Immediate action doesn’t just improve recovery—it saves lives. Don’t wait until it’s too late; educate yourself and your loved ones today.

Great news from Schools First Aid Training Service CIC receiving funding from CO-OP Community Funding and Aberdeen City Council's UDECIDE meaning more schools get supported 👏

🎉 We’ve got some AMAZING news to share! 🎉

We’re absolutely thrilled to announce that we’ve been awarded funding from not one, but TWO fantastic sources! 🙌

💙 First up – CO-OP Community Funding!
We were chosen by two CO-OP stores and CO-OP Funeral Services as their selected CIC, and thanks to all your votes, we’ve secured enough funding to support Skene Square Primary, Gilcomstoun Primary, and St Joseph’s Primary! 💪

💛 Next – Aberdeen City Council’s UDECIDE South and Central!
This funding means we can bring our work to even more schools across Torry, Kincorth, and Riverbank Primary. We’ve already kicked things off at Abbotswell Primary, where the kids absolutely smashed it — and even told us how much they loved the session! 🌟

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who voted, supported, and believed in what we do. Together, we’re making a difference in even more schools across our community! 💫
