Scout Volunteer First Response Training Course - 2nd Warwick HQ

This course is available for all adult volunteers in Warwickshire Scouting

The County Executive Committee have committed to funding free First Aid training for Warwickshire Scout adult volunteers.

To ensure efficient take up of places, we ask that if you need to cancel a place after booking that you give at least two weeks' notice. If cancelled after this date and the place is not filled, then your Scout Group/District will be invoiced for the place. We hope you understand as places are limited.
