Counties wishing to sign up to the Blended Approach can find the information at the bottom of this page.
Leaders, managers and supporters in Scouting must hold a current First Aid qualification at the time of getting their wood badge and renew this every three years. The minimum standard is the six hour First Response course which has been developed in partnership with Girlguiding UK. This is split into two modules:
Module 10A - First Aid Theory is either delivered via a blended e-learning plus zoom session or a six hour face to face session. This is valid for face to face Scouting during COVID19. We are also allowing other counties to use our blended approach - see below for more information.
Module 10B - First Aid Practical is delivered as a short 20 minute drop in session to cover the practical skills - everyone needs to complete this within six months of us reaching Green readiness level.
First Response conversion e-learning is available for people who hold Emergency First Aid at Work (1 day), First Aid at Work (2/3 day) and Child First Aid courses by clicking on the relevant links.
More information can be found on the Scout website: First Response and equivalents, First Aid FAQs, COVID safe first aid training, First Aid for learners and giving First Aid during Coronovirus.
Please email Mike Baxter, First Aid Coordinator with any questions: [email protected].
You will need to complete the e-learning prior to attending one of the sessions below.
