As requested at the AGM, we’re arranging first aid training. It’s a 2 day course over the weekend of 22/23 April.
The course will focus on outdoor first aid skills and will be delivered by an Emergency Medical Technician from the the Arrochar Mountain Rescue team who also happens to be a qualified mountain bike leader. The course is in Rescue Emergency Care (Level 2) and is enough to satisfy the requirements for various outdoor qualifications, for example the Mountain Biker Leader Awards (MBLA) for trail leadership.
Priority will be given to current, paid up club members but if you’re interested in the course or have friends/colleagues who may be interested then let them know and we can include them in the list if we’re short of GMBC folks. We’re aiming to get 10-12 people (3 people already confirmed as of 15/2). The course fee would be a maximum of £50, with the possibility of a subsidy for club members who are willing to make their first aid skills available on club rides/events. The fees include all course notes and certificate upon successful completion of the course.
A venue for the course will be advised once we have confirmation of enough interest to run the course.
If you’re interested in signing up or want to know more then please email info[AT]gmbc[DOT]org[DOT]uk
That’s 6 people signed up. We need a minimum of 4 more people to run the course. If you’re interested please sign up ASAP. Thanks.
