    First Aider in the Workplace,

    Maybe so. Have confidence bud. In an emergency I’m sure your new colleagues would be grateful of your skills. Having retrained with Richard Cook a few years ago at the moot I eventually found myself in a situation where I saved a life. Everybody was so grateful I was that guy. Sent from my...

    First Aider in the Workplace,

    Yeah hi mate, good to “see” you Is this really reflecting on you and how you feel about responsibility or is it more to do with how you feel about your employer/ workmates? Thing is (we have shared some of the same training) I would struggle to be a bystander in an event. Might as well be...

    First Aider in the Workplace,

    Tee Dee, what’s not to like about being the First Aider? Do the company make some allowance to you for performing this function or at least pick up the cost of requalification? Frankly, given your skills, what is expected of you in an emergency it so hum drum that it’s not really a...

    Sorry to be flippant but I think I have the perfect solution. I do understand and sympathise, I’ve isolated myself since March 2020 too. Dark humour...

    Re bring and buy. How about you lay you trade items out at your camp a given morning? Those interested can have a wander round and find your wares. One of our local villages has done the same. Basically a garage sale on one particular day. They call it a Brocante. Keeps us all outdoors and...
