Give your young people the skills and confidence to save a life
As a Group Scout Leader, I know that empowering young people through enjoyable and hands on learning builds confidence and self worth. I am proud to be a member of the Scout Association and I hope, I can help your section or organisation meet the first aid needs be it for a First Aid Badge or Gold DofE! so RMB First Aid really know how to tailor a first aid course for each section, badge or leadership team.
We know that you will receive First Response training from your District or Country Training teams, but consider RMB Frist Aid for a full first aid qualification, talk to us about what we can offer your leadership team.
The basic requirement for a person to do the D of E award is to do a minimum of three months of activity for each of the following:

Physical – improving in one area of sport, fitness activities, sports, or dance.
Skills – developing personal interests, social and practical skills
Expedition – going on an expedition can either be through training or competition in the UK or abroad.
Delegates are also required to undertake a basic first aid course, such as the emergency first aid at work course.
Level 2 RQF Student First Aid : 4 Hour Course (equivalent to our DofE Bronze offering)
The government announced in 2020 that health education will be compulsory in all state-funded schools in England and this includes basic first aid training. Our 4-hour Student First Aid course (the syllabus can be divided into 4 x 1-hour block sessions, spread over a period) has been designed for key stage 3 and key stage 4 students (11+ years) and fulfils the requirements of the Department for Education in respect of first aid training. Not only would secondary schools meet the statutory requirements for health education, but students would also have the opportunity to attain a nationally regulated qualification, enhance their CV and develop new life skills.
