First Aid Annual Refresher
A half-day refresher that keeps qualified first aiders sharp between three-yearly requalifications — exactly what the HSE recommends. Workplace and paediatric versions available.

Who it's for
If any of these sound like your organisation, this is the right course.
- Organisations following the HSE's recommendation of annual refresher training
- First aiders who rarely use their skills in practice
- Teams between requalification years
- Nurseries and schools refreshing paediatric skills
What's covered
Every session is practical, and tailored to the way your team actually works.
- Assessing an incident: scene survey, primary survey, summoning help
- CPR and AED use, practised again to current guidance
- The unresponsive casualty and recovery position
- Choking
- Paediatric version: infant and child CPR and choking
How it works
Numbers, sites and any deadlines — an audit, a new contract or a certificate about to lapse.
We recommend the right course and confirm dates, group sizes and a fixed price.
Training runs at your premises, around your rota, with everything we need brought with us.
Learners receive their certificates, and we remind you before anything expires.
Questions
Anything else, just call us on 0151 558 1470.
Does this replace requalification?
No. The annual refresher keeps skills current within the three-year cycle; first aiders still need to requalify before their main certificate expires.
Is refresher training a legal requirement?
It is strongly recommended by the HSE rather than legally required. Most organisations do it because skills fade quickly, and because it demonstrates a serious approach to competence.
How long does it take?
Three guided learning hours — typically a morning or an afternoon, which keeps disruption to a minimum.
