About ARC Training Services
As an experienced First Aid Instructor, I have been teaching and delivering courses for over 15 years, as well as used First Aid in various settings including the Lifeguards, HM Coastguard and also HM Prison Service.
With experience in Paediatric First Aid Training, I have a passion to deliver training to people so when required they have the skills and knowledge to help others. I find teaching incredibly rewarding and would describe my teaching style as very practical.
As well as teaching First Aid we have also added Mental Health First Aid to our repertoire. When I am not Teaching, I have a fantastic position as the Deputy Station Officer for Shoreham Coastguards which means I have had to use my knowledge and skills assessment in some very challenging situations.
