First aid training across Greater Coventry 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 Coventry 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 Coventry, 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 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.

Coventry mainline station — on the West Coast Main Line, with direct services from London Euston, Birmingham New Street, Manchester and Rugby — is roughly a short taxi or bus ride away, and local Stagecoach and National Express Coventry services stop close to the venue on Roundhouse Road and Mitchell Close.
