Sat 7 March: First Aid Course
The course is now fully-booked. (Only people who have booked with Peter and paid a deposit have places).
The course is free, with a £20 refundable deposit. However, we would be most grateful if you would consider this a donation to future courses.
The Emergency First Aid at Work (Level 3) Award is valid for three years. Susan Clements has delivered courses for us before, and includes specific focus on cycling-related injuries.
For more information or to sign up, email Peter Wilson, safeguarding officer safeguarding@ctccambridge.org.uk.
