Testimonial

Old Cryptians RFC (Sports Appointed Persons First Aid)

OCath  

I would like to thank you for providing us with an absolutely first class first aid course. You had obviously done a great deal of research into the RFU recommendations and this, added to your own knowledge of the game of Rugby, enabled the course to be perfectly tailored to our needs.The recording forms you gave us are also a godsend in this day and age of litigation. We are all now confident we can go out on the pitch when the new season starts, ready to deal with anything!
