We also run courses open to individuals and groups at our Hastings training centre, suitable for those in Bexhill, Eastbourne, Battle, Brighton, East Sussex and surrounding areas.

Candidates will need to demonstrate competency to the instructor throughout the course and complete a multiple choice test to reinforce the skills learnt.
