First aid training across Greater Nottingham 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 Nottingham 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 Nottingham, 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 Nottingham?
Nottingham is the commercial and cultural heart of the East Midlands — a city of around 330,000 people with two large universities, a major NHS trust, a thriving Creative Quarter, advanced-manufacturing and life-sciences employers at the Nottingham Science Park, and significant logistics operations along the M1 and around East Midlands Gateway. Training your team locally — at our Cinderhill venue or on-site at your premises — keeps staff travel time and downtime to a minimum, while still delivering a fully, HSE-recognised course accepted by employers throughout the UK. Local delivery means a quicker start, less disruption, and a course built around your real workplace risks.
As a major economic centre in the East Midlands, Nottingham has a diverse business landscape spanning retail, life sciences, and professional services. Employers across the city have a legal duty under the Health and Safety (First-Aid) Regulations 1981 to ensure appropriate first aid provision, making trained personnel essential.

About First Aid for Teachers training in Nottingham
This one-day, six-hour first aid course for teachers and school staff is fully HSE-aligned and designed to meet the specific requirements of the Department for Education's guidance on first aid in schools. The syllabus is uniquely broad, covering both adult and paediatric protocols in one intensive session. This ensures staff are equipped to help both their colleagues and pupils. We focus on common childhood incidents that Nottingham teachers encounter daily, including asthma attacks, severe allergic reactions (anaphylaxis), choking, and head injuries sustained during PE or lunch-hall activities. If your school includes an Early Years foundation stage, this course provides a robust foundation for those working with younger children alongside older students.
Upon successful completion, delegates receive a certificate valid for three years, confirming their status as a competent first aider within a school setting. This training is ideal for teachers, teaching assistants, lunchtime supervisors, and administrative staff at major Nottingham employers like the Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust educational divisions or local academy trusts. By choosing a recognised training provider, you ensure your staff are trained to the highest standards, maintaining a safe learning environment from the city centre to the suburban reaches of Mansfield and Newark. The course is fast-paced and practical, ensuring every participant leaves with the confidence to act when every second counts.
