Sectors we train in Cambridge

Tailored to your industry, not generic

We regularly deliver first aid training across these Cambridge sectors: We use the smaller-group format to spend extra time on the scenarios that matter to your sector — not a one-size-fits-all syllabus.

Biotech & life sciences

Cambridge has Europe’s densest biotech cluster. We tailor EFAW and BLS sessions around lab-bench injuries, chemical splashes and seizure response.

Universities & colleges

Designated first aiders for porters’ lodges, halls of residence and student services. Mental Health First Aid is increasingly requested.

Hospitality & restaurants

Burns, choking and trips/slips lead the syllabus for kitchen and front-of-house teams. Bookings often combined with allergen / anaphylaxis training.

Independent schools & nurseries

EYFS-compliant Paediatric First Aid for early years staff plus EFAW for older-years cover. Delivered in school holidays where possible.

Tech & startups

Single-day EFAW for office-based teams, often combined with Mental Health First Aid as part of wellbeing programmes.

Sports clubs & leisure

BLS and AED refresher sessions for gyms, sailing clubs (Cam) and rugby clubs.

Postcodes we cover: CB1 · CB2 · CB3 · CB4 · CB5 · CB22 · CB23 · CB24 · CB25

Frequently asked — Cambridge

Questions from Cambridge customers

How quickly can you reach our Cambridge premises?

Door-to-door is usually 45–60 minutes from our Peterborough base via the A14. For onsite training we typically arrive 30 minutes before start to set up manikins, AED trainers and consumables.

Can you train in college / Cambridge University buildings?

Yes. We routinely deliver in college rooms, departmental teaching spaces, and the Old Schools / Sidgwick Site. We bring all manikins and training kit, and only need a room large enough for floor-based CPR practice (typically 6m × 4m for a group of 8).

Do you deliver Paediatric First Aid for Cambridge nurseries?

Yes — full 12-hour EYFS-compliant Paediatric First Aid (the version Ofsted requires) plus Emergency Paediatric First Aid for support staff. Both available as blended (online + practical) so you minimise time off the floor.

Is there parking at Cambridge venues?

We park on-street, in college visitor bays, or at the venue’s designated parking. Just let us know in advance if access is restricted.
