First aid training across Greater Bradford 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 Bradford 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 Bradford, 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 Bradford?

Bradford is one of the UK's largest manufacturing cities, with strong concentrations of employers in food production, textiles, engineering, chemicals, logistics and healthcare. Under the Health and Safety (First-Aid) Regulations 1981, every Bradford employer must complete a first-aid needs assessment and provide 'adequate and appropriate' cover — for low-risk offices in the city centre a one-day Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW) certificate is normally sufficient, while warehouses, factories and care settings around Euroway, Laisterdyke and Keighley typically need the three-day FAW. Training locally at our Cedar Court Hotel venue on Mayo Avenue (BD5 8HW) keeps staff close to the workplace, reduces travel time off the M606/M62, and produces an recognised course recognised by the HSE for three years.

Bradford is a significant economic centre within West Yorkshire, known for its strong manufacturing heritage and a growing professional services sector. With a large and diverse workforce across many industries, organisations have a clear responsibility under the Health & Safety (First-Aid) Regulations 1981 to ensure an adequate number of trained first aiders are present.

Getting here

Our Bradford venue, Cedar Court Hotel on Mayo Avenue (BD5 8HW), sits just off the M606 at the Staygate roundabout — around 13 minutes from the M62 at Hartshead Moor Services and easily reached from Halifax, Huddersfield, Leeds and Wakefield. On-site parking is supplemented by YourParkingSpace one minute away, and the Rooley Lane and St Matthew's School bus stops are a 7-minute walk. Bradford Interchange and Forster Square stations are a short taxi ride into the city centre, with frequent Northern and Grand Central services from Leeds, Halifax, Skipton, Ilkley and London King's Cross.

Onsite & in-house training

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

We understand that logistics can be a challenge for busy Bradford employers like the NHS Trust or local food production sites. While many individuals travel to our Cedar Court Hotel base from Bingley and Ilkley using the frequent Northern Rail services into the Interchange, we also offer bespoke on-site training. If your school or nursery is based in Keighley or Halifax, our trainers can come directly to your premises. This group-booking option allows your staff to learn in their own environment, reducing travel time and ensuring that your specific first-aid needs assessment is met with minimal disruption to your daily childcare schedule.

  • Onsite first aid training across Greater Bradford — 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
