Outdoor First Aid - 16-17th February 2019, Chanonry Sailing Club, Fortrose
Inverness Canoe Club is offering a 16 hour outdoor first aid course on 16-17th February 2019, from 08.45 to 18.00 hrs. The course again will be delivered by Cory Jones who is a paddler, club member, and qualified first aid trainer (www.firstaidtrainingcooperative.co.uk). The course will consist of both indoor and outdoor training and scenarios, as well as assessment.
Update this course is now full, but i have created a reserve list if interested members can sign up. We can see if it is possible to run another course and certainly allocate places to reserves if there are cancellations.
The aim is first of all to provide training to our coaches and leaders (and would be leaders and coaches) who need this certificate for their qualifications to remain in date. Secondly, we are all safer if we have a qualified first aider in our midst.
The (heavily subsidised) cost to all club members is £30. Prioriity will be given to Coaches Leaders and trainees, but anyone who is paddling is welcome to apply for a place. We have always had quite a few ordinary members do the course and we certainly would prefer to have no unfilled places.
Tea and coffee provided, but please bring a packed lunch with you. It's a full two days so please be prompt.
As the outside scenarios in particular will be focused on situations which might arise while paddling, please bring your paddling kit with you, including a helmet if you have one.
Date: Saturday 16-17th February 2019
Time: 8.45am-6pm both days
Location: Chanonry Sailing Club, Fortrose
