Mini First Aid Shropshire

26/09/2025

Delighted to have been at the last night for delivering certain topics from our baby and child first aid class. Always a please being here as it brings back some great memories.

For those of you who know my story of how I got here, will know that my grandad (lifelong wolves fan!) unfortunately passed away from sepsis - which triggered me to change paths to train the public in life saving skills.

I was in the building last night where my grandads in the book of remembrance so it felt pretty special teaching in there too.

🌟 A HUGE THANK YOU 🌟

We’ve been absolutely blown away by the lovely feedback from our recent children’s first aid workshops 💚

One parent shared how their child:
✨ Knew exactly how to call the emergency services and explain what was happening.
✨ Could confidently put them into the recovery position – and even taught their 9-year-old sibling too!
✨ Took the learning home, sparking important family discussions in a fun, non-scary way.

This is exactly why we do what we do. Empowering children with life-saving skills doesn’t just stop in the classroom – it ripples out into homes and families. 🏡💭

Thank you to everyone who welcomed us in and made our workshops such a success – we can’t wait to be back again next year! 🙌

💚 Mini First Aid – teaching skills for life.

🌟 Saturday Training Success! 🌟

This weekend we had the pleasure of delivering a Blended Paediatric First Aid course for a wonderful group of childminders.

👶 From bumps and bruises to choking, CPR and serious emergencies, these amazing childminders are now fully trained and confident to act if a little one needs them.

👏 Huge well done to everyone who took part – your dedication to keeping children safe is inspiring.

📚 Did you know? Our blended course combines 6 hours online learning (to complete in your own time) with 6 hours face-to-face training. Perfect for busy childcare providers who need flexibility while still meeting all Ofsted and EYFS requirements.

💡 If you’re a nursery, school, or group of childminders looking for first aid training that fits around you, get in touch – we’d love to help.
