"I had a great experience completing my First Aid course with St John Ambulance in Kettering. The instructor was very knowledgeable, patient and polite, and explained everything clearly, making the course easy and helpful to understand. I successfully passed my course and I’m very grateful for the experience. I would definitely recommend St John Ambulance to anyone looking to complete a First Aid course. Excellent training and a very welcoming learning environment!"

"It was well organized and informative. There's a lot of material to be presented and absorbed, but they set aside just the right amount of time to dig into it and make sure that we all understood. They were good about giving us regular breaks. Without those, it would have been too much. I found the first day pretty stressful since we're being evaluated at each stage. You need to be ready to go and pay attention all day long. It was tiring but rewarding. Lots of group work to discuss and knowledgeable explanations to help make more complicated situations clear. I learned a lot and it was a good experience overall."

"They are very helpful staff I highly recommended it I learned a lot that week I appreciate it, especially to Jason who was teaching me. He helped me a lot thank you.🙏 we all learnt a lot from him keep up the good work Jason 🙏hopefully I’ll never have to use it, but it’s always there if I need it thank you to St John’s ambulance"
