Why Train in Salford?

Training your team in Salford means using a dedicated British Red Cross first aid training centre right inside MediaCityUK, rather than sending staff into central Manchester or further afield. For the broadcasters, post-production studios and tech employers at MediaCityUK and Salford Quays, the healthcare workforce at Salford Royal and the wider Northern Care Alliance, the University of Salford, and large local employers such as BBC, ITV, AJ Bell, TalkTalk, Peel L&P and Salford City Council, the Health and Safety (First-Aid) Regulations 1981 require an adequate, appointed first aid provision based on a workplace needs assessment. A local, HSE-aligned EFAW course keeps that compliance straightforward and minimises time off the floor.

Located at the heart of Greater Manchester, Salford is a major North West economic centre, known for its media, technology, and public sector employment. With thousands of people working across MediaCityUK, Salford Quays and numerous business parks, employers have a clear duty under the Health and Safety (First-Aid) Regulations 1981. Ensuring an adequate number of qualified first aiders is a fundamental compliance requirement for every local business.

Mainline rail services run from Salford Crescent and Salford Central, and the M602 (J3) drops directly onto the M60 (J12) for drivers from across Greater Manchester, Bolton, Bury and Wigan. Free on-site parking is available at the venue.
