First Aid Forestry EFAW+F Scottish Boarders Kelso

Our Forestry First Aid Efaw+F courses are designed for forest workers, arborists, fencing contractors, stalkers, civil engineering staff, recreational hunters, and anyone operating on Forestry Commission land or in remote rural areas. The courses focus on practical, hands-on training tailored to real working environments, covering topics such as severe bleeding, crush injuries, suspension trauma, hypothermia, Lyme disease, and emergency communication using personal locator beacons. As a UK FISA member and preferred provider for the Forestry Commission and Scottish Woodlands, we ensure that all training aligns with current health and safety standards and Forestry Commission first aid policies. Our trainers bring direct field experience, sharing practical advice for managing casualties in challenging and remote conditions.

We continually update our Emergency First Aid at Work with forestry courses to reflect the most common incidents and near misses in the industry. Training emphasizes real-life scenarios, including hypothermia management, contacting emergency services, and using Spot messengers or Inreach devices. These courses meet the minimum requirements for forestry, renewable energy, construction, utility companies, and stalkers working in hazardous outdoor environments. Our commitment is to make the forestry sector safer by delivering relevant, practical, and professional guidance from trainers who truly understand your work setting. Participants gain confidence and knowledge to respond effectively in emergencies while working in isolated or risky environments.
