Annual First Aid Refresher in Cambridge

Our 3-hour annual refresher at the Holiday Inn Cambridge, conveniently located just off the A14 at the Histon roundabout, provides essential skills maintenance for first aiders across the city’s thriving biotech and research sectors. Whether you are based at the Cambridge Biomedical Campus or a tech firm near the Science Park, this HSE-recommended top-up ensures your life-saving knowledge remains sharp. As a recognised training provider, we help local teams from Ely to Saffron Walden stay confident in managing workplace emergencies between their main training cycles. Note: this 3-hour refresher tops up your skills between certificates — it does not renew your in-date First Aid at Work or Emergency First Aid at Work qualification.

First aid training across Greater Cambridge and surrounding areas

Our trainers run public Emergency First Aid at Work, First Aid at Work, Paediatric First Aid and Mental Health First Aid courses at central Cambridge venues throughout the year — with on-site delivery available anywhere across the wider region. Whether you're booking a single seat or training a whole team, you'll get a practical, HSE-aligned session led by an experienced instructor.

We support employers, schools, nurseries, charities and event organisers right across Greater Cambridge, from city-centre offices to industrial sites on the outskirts. On-site team training keeps your people in their own environment, cuts travel time to zero and works out significantly cheaper per person than sending staff to public courses — ideal for groups of six or more.

Why Train in Cambridge?

Cambridge is a global hub for life sciences, technology and academic research, with employers ranging from biotech start-ups on Granta Park and the Cambridge Biomedical Campus through to colleges, language schools and creative agencies in the historic centre. Under the Health and Safety (First-Aid) Regulations 1981 every Cambridge employer must complete a first-aid needs assessment — for low-risk offices, labs with good engineering controls and educational settings a one-day Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW) certificate is normally sufficient, while higher-hazard sites typically need the three-day FAW. Training locally at our Holiday Inn Cambridge venue in Impington (CB24 9PH), just off the A14 at Histon, keeps researchers and office staff close to the workplace and produces an recognised course recognised by the HSE for three years.

Cambridge is a global centre for innovation, with a unique economic landscape dominated by science, technology and research. Within these highly specialised workplaces, fulfilling the legal first-aid duties set by the HSE is a critical component of maintaining a safe and productive environment.

Onsite & in-house training

Onsite first aid training in Cambridge — we come to your workplace

HSE strongly recommends an annual refresher between full Emergency First Aid at Work or First Aid at Work requalifications. This Cambridge session is built around hands-on practice rather than theory, with small groups, adult and child manikins and a live AED trainer. It complements (it does not replace) your 3-year certificate.

  • Onsite first aid training across Greater Cambridge — trainer travels to your workplace
  • In-house EFAW (1-day) or First Aid at Work (3-day) courses, 4–12 learners per session — most cost-effective from 6+
  • Evening, weekend and INSET-day delivery available — minimal disruption to your team
  • One fixed price — includes trainer, manikins, AED trainers and HSE-aligned certificates
