Alastair Stewart –
“A thoroughly practical day, interspersed with very relevant background, theory and detail. Andy Sullivan’s depth of experience, his wide knowledge and personable style, coupled with staged outdoor scenarios with a live ‘patient’ acting out symptoms with realistic-looking wounds/injuries, made the content compelling. The day left me feeling equipped with the knowledge and confidence to deal with situations that might arise, wherever they might be. An outstanding course that I would wholeheartedly recommend: a day very well spent.”
