Would recommend to Everyone
Thank You so much from all the crew at the Happy Pants Ranch.
Due to Covid-safety the course has quite clearly been adapted and I must say it was well thought out. Even with less practical/hands on training I still feel I have the knowledge to apply first aid should I need to.
Micks knowledge, confidence and style of teaching was reassuring, educational, and humorous which keeps you engaged throughout.
I would recommend Mick to anyone looking for First Aid Training.
Secure Base Training - a great reminder
Secure Base Training today with Mick was really good. Sensitive subjects covered with the right balance of sensitivity and humour. I found it a great reminder as to why foster carers do what they do and has given me a new confidence to carry on what I’m doing. Thanks Mick
Knowledgable, welcoming and helpful
Mick has provided First Aid and Men Who Foster Training for our organisation.
The carers described him as knowledgable, welcoming and helped to put them at ease.
The men said they had a fun evening whilst thinking about how to keep themselves safe. Nothing to do with the Chinese apparently !!
Thank you Mick
Well run and engaging training
Mick tool 12 of our staff for first aid training and the feedback from those who attended couldn’t be better.
So much so we will be looking to repeat this annually and wouldn’t look anywhere else other than with mick.
The Hazel Project - Young People's First Aid Training
Mick delivered some excellent First Aid Training for a group of our Young people. Mick was very patient and answered all the questions that the young people had.
Feedback from the participants was good and they felt that they had learnt a lot from Mick.
