Escape Outdoors now has a 'sister' company that runs, endorses and certificates First Aid courses; both HSE's recognised and NGB approved Outdoor First Aid Course. First Aid Supplies and Training was set up in 2010 by Simon Whitmore, an enthusiastic outdoor practitioner who was keen to develop and train participants. His knowledge and experience was fed into these courses- this was built through working on expeditions throughout the world, training Community First Responders, working on ambulances and gaining many academic awards associated with this. Having worked closely with Simon for a number of years, Grahame Moss (Escape Outdoors) took over the company when Simon was unable to continue the business in 2016; we continue to run these dynamic, interactive and informative courses with the knowledge and skills Grahame has gained throughout the outdoor sector and First Aid skills courses.
