Established in 2015, SaFA Training & Consultancy Ltd are based in South Yorkshire and offer a range of Health, Safety and First Aid training across South Yorkshire and beyond. We have instructors strategically placed across the UK in order to deliver onsite courses to most parts of the UK. Our vision is to make quality affordable training available to all.
Our trainers have hands-on experience working in factory, warehousing, transport and recycling environments in such roles as trainer, mentor and management positions as well as some from a military background. Between them they have worked with and trained many people from different cultures and background.
Most of our First Aid trainers still carry out medical duty at events or work as volunteers as Community First Responders alongside the NHS. All our regulated training courses are on the RQF framework so you can be safe in the knowledge that we are teaching the most up-to-date information.
