Frequently Asked Questions

Who is the Community Basic Life Support course for?

Gain the skills to make a difference when it counts. Our Lincoln based Community Basic Life Support course has been specifically written for community groups, charity organisations and members of the public who want to go from a beginner or refresher level to being fully confident in delivering high-quality CPR and using an AED.

You will leave knowing exactly how to apply practical, life-saving knowledge in real-world scenarios.

Where in Lincoln is the training held?

Our Lincoln courses are based on the south-west side of the city, around North Hykeham, South Hykeham, Waddington and Bracebridge Heath, where the A46 and A15 meet the Lincoln bypass. This is the most practical side of Lincoln for drivers travelling from Nottingham and keeps us out of steep, congested city-centre streets. Venues here typically offer free or low-cost parking and are still reachable on local bus services from Lincoln and surrounding towns. Full venue details and arrival instructions are sent out around two weeks before your course, once numbers are confirmed and we've secured a venue that's the right size for your group.

Is Community Basic Life Support accredited training?
You can optionally undertake a formal assessment at the end of the course to obtain a certificate accredited by the First Aid Industry Body (FAIB). There is no additional cost to this. We teach all of our courses using expert national guidance and they are led by highly experienced healthcare professionals. If you are a health or care professional looking for nationally recognised training, we provide a combined Adult and Paediatric Basic Life Support course.
How long is a Community Basic Life Support certificate valid for?
In line with UK national guidelines, your Community Basic Life Support certification will be valid for 12 months. We recommend booking an annual refresher to keep your practical skills sharp and your compliance up to date.
Do I need any previous medical experience to attend?
No. This our Community Basic Life Support is specifically tailored to community groups, charity organisations and members of the public.
What should I wear for the session?
We recommend wearing comfortable, loose-fitting clothing (like trousers and a t-shirt) and flat shoes. Our training involves active clinical simulation and practical skills, such as CPR and recovery positions, so you will need to move around freely and kneel on the floor.
