The Training
The courses were facilitated by James Bassett of Polymath Training and Consultancy Limited who’s work with the charity, pre-merger, personally spans 10 years, and on an annual average delivers his Basic Life Support training course to 330 One Fylde staff.
Dawn Lasledj, Learning & Development Manager at One Fylde: “We received significant feedback from the people we support. One whom witnessed someone close to them receiving basic life support and the use of a defibrillator. Following the training, they acknowledged feeling more knowledgeable and accepting of the situation. Others admitted feeling nervous but being glad they attended, it was fun and great to learn. Another pride in that learning first aid was a goal of hers, now achieved.”

A word from Tracey
Tracey Bush, CEO at One Fylde said: “Learning first aid is crucial for enhancing personal safety and the safety of others. For adults with learning disabilities and autism, it also promotes independence and empowers them to contribute to their communities by equipping them with skills to respond to emergencies, keeping safe both at home and in public spaces. We are incredibly proud of the determination and pride each person has taken in their learning of Basic Life Support training.”
