Paediatric First Aid Course in Maidstone

Maidstone is the county town of Kent and a major employment hub serving Mid Kent, the Medway towns, and the wider M20 corridor between London and the Channel Ports. Training your team locally — at our Hermitage Court venue or on-site at your premises — keeps staff travel time and downtime to a minimum, while still delivering a fully, HSE-recognised course that is accepted by employers throughout the UK. Whether you are based in the town centre, on one of the surrounding business parks, or out along the M20, choosing local Maidstone delivery means a quicker start, less disruption, and a course built around your real workplace risks.

Maidstone is served by three mainline railway stations — Maidstone East (services to London Victoria via Bromley South), Maidstone West (to London Charing Cross / Cannon Street via Tonbridge), and Maidstone Barracks. Our Hermitage Court venue is closest to Barming station (about a 13-minute walk) and the Hermitage Farm bus stop (3 minutes). By road, Maidstone sits directly on the M20 motorway with quick access from Junctions 5, 6, 7 and 8; the A20, A229 (Bluebell Hill to Chatham/Medway), A249 (to Sittingbourne and the M2), and A26 (to Tonbridge and Tunbridge Wells) all converge on the town. Free on-site parking is available at the venue, and the Hounsfield Unit and Maidstone Hospital staff car parks are within a short walk.
