Leisure and Tourism Industry First Aid

If you have a duty of care for tourists or the general public, whether in an aeroplane or coach, on a guided tour or at a charity event, at home or abroad, we have the course to suit your requirements.

This 14 hour course covers essential life saving techniques, especially dealing with casualties safely, systematically and sympathetically in the first few minutes of the incident. Typically, tour representatives, children's club co-ordinators, pool lifeguards, sports coaches or team managers working with all ages of people in all activities take this award as a minimum standard of duty of care. It is also very popular with Trainees and assistants starting out on their career in leisure & travel.
