CPR For Scouts is run by a great Husband and Wife team, Martin & Lisa, who are well used to providing training and mentoring services to large groups through their day to day involvement in Scouting. And through Lisa, we have multiple years of real world medical training and experience to back up what we're actually teaching. Yey! They're a pretty good team to be honest.
If required. we can also provide references from units who we've run training events for.
More information about Martin & Lisa can be viewed in the below drop downs.
