Completed the first aid course for Forest School. Although a long day in total, so worth it! The course itself was so informative, clearly laid out with a presentation and not rushed. Cover... See more

First Aid Course - giving you all skills

Carolyn made the whole experience fun even though it was a serious topic and thorough training was involved. Felt i had theory beforehand by doing the online course to help when doing the more physical training. I would say i feel a lot more confident helping someone in any circumstance now. Highly recommend

Thank you Claire - it was great to have you enthusiasm (and acting skills!) on the course today. So glad you feel more confident but I do hope you never find yourself in a position to need any of those new skills!

Really useful course

The first aid training we received from Winterbury training is really valuable. It has meant we've been able to deal with minor injuries at work effectively and gives us peace of mind at work and home that we can help if the worst should happen! The course wasn't just useful, it was also really fun and enjoyable too!

Paediatric First Aid course

I recently completed both the Paediatric First Aid and Workplace First Aider courses with Winterbourne Training, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. The instructor was exceptional throughout – knowledgeable, engaging, and able to deliver the content in a way that was both clear and memorable.

The course content was thorough and well structured, with plenty of interaction that made the learning both practical and enjoyable. The instructor’s approach ensured everyone felt confident to ask questions and practise skills in a supportive environment.

Overall, an outstanding training experience that has left me feeling well-prepared and confident. Winterbourne Training sets the standard – highly recommend!

Amazing trainer - Quality, Humour, and dedication!…

Always love training events with Caroline Port (plus the addition of her equally brilliant husband). Caroline is very enthusiastic about her courses, and ensures we are supplied with drinks, snacks, and even little sweet treats. Caroline is efficient, funny, patient and kind. She makes every course I go on an absolute pleasure.
Shes also.very empathetic to those of us who struggle with memory, anxiety and other symptoms of the older students:) Definitely the lady to use when wanting training on First Aid, Safeguarding, and Teenage development.

Awesome course

Awesome course, so very informative and the trainer was funny, real, very relatable too. I wish all trainers were this good. She made it feel very informal and almost personal, by remembering names and referencing things you may have said the previously. Very interactive and encouraging

Best First Aid Course

I always dread attending training courses. But with this one, I actually had fun and enjoyed the session. The training was done in such a way that you could remember a lot of the information. It is the best first aid course I have attended.

Just had my First Aid Course with Carolyn, and I couldn’t recommend enough.
Carolyn made the course fun & full of laughter.
I have been to many courses in the past & this was by far the best.
I have come away with a lot more knowledge, along with Carolyn’s useful mnemonics in First Aid.
Thank you so much Carolyn.

Great results from Winterbury

Carolyn conducted a team First Aid at work training day for a group. The day went by in a flash and Carolyn was very informative with a great range of knowledge, speaking from her own emergency response experience . The training was made fun and Carolyn adapted her teaching style easily to the different personality types on the course. I would thoroughly recommend using Winterbury Training and we shall certainly book for the renewal training when the time arrives. Everyone attending the course passed!

a great, interactive session

a really good course, facilitated by Carolyn that helped a small group work through emergency first aid content, anaphylaxis, asthma. fractures, defibrillators. Carolyn has clearly worked in the field for decades and has a wealth of experience and knowledge to impart.
