Why Train in Coventry?

For employers across Coventry and the wider CV postcode area, training locally at our British Red Cross Centre venue on Bradbury House (CV3 4LB, off the A4082 near Whitley) removes the cost and downtime of sending staff up to Birmingham or out to Leicester. The site sits a short drive from junctions 2 and 3 of the M6, making it equally convenient for delegates travelling in from Nuneaton, Bedworth, Rugby, Kenilworth, Royal Leamington Spa, Warwick and Solihull. Our Coventry Emergency First Aid at Work course is an recognised course delivered in a single day, mapped tightly to HSE guidance under the Health and Safety (First-Aid) Regulations 1981 so manufacturers, logistics operators, schools, care providers and office employers can meet their statutory first-aid duty without losing a working week.

As a key economic centre in the West Midlands with a strong industrial base in manufacturing and logistics, Coventry has a high concentration of workplaces. This density of employment makes adequate first aid provision a critical legal duty for all local organisations under the Health and Safety (First-Aid) Regulations 1981.
