This is an outstanding outdoor first aid course for those based in Devon or regionally. I have done outdoor first aid courses for 20 years and this is the only one that I am confident where I am going to feel challenged and come away having built my knowledge base and confidence. This is the second time I have used Optimal First Aid and I would be confident in using them again and I would recommend them to others.Posted on Google![]()

Great course which was easy to follow and very relaxing thanks to Toby Osborne. Was good to have a lot of practical exercises as it made the course more interesting as sometimes too much talking can get boring. This course was definitely not boring as everyone was involved. Great work Tony 👍Posted on Google![]()

First aid in the outdoors. Not a power point in sight. The course was easily the best I've been on over many years. Content was engaging and Toby constantly managed to reshape the learning to reflect our different industries. Toby and Erica were fun, approachable and very knowledgeable. Don't think about it. Just book it. Back again after 3 years and the course is still hands on, relevant and engaging. This course removes the chore and bore of renewing your first aid qualification!Posted on Google![]()

We’ve just had our annual refresher course with Toby! He is absolutely brilliant, even covered some bits that aren’t ’officially’ part of the training. Very informative and fun. Thank you so much!! From The Honeycomb Team xPosted on Google![]()
