Manchester First Aid Training has delivered hands-on, feel-good courses across Leigh and the wider Wigan area since 2010, with 5,000+ five-star reviews along the way.
Whether you’re a Leigh workplace, school, nursery or care home, the legal requirement is the same: you need First Aid coverage that meets HSE and (where relevant) Ofsted and EYFS rules. We make it simple.
We deliver on-site First Aid courses across the whole of Leigh WN7, from Leigh town centre through to Atherton, Tyldesley, Astley and Pennington. Whether you have premises on the high street or in an industrial unit, our trainers come to you. It’s why organisations like Gilded Hollins Community Primary School, St Thomas CE Primary School and Pennygate Medical Centre trust us with their First Aid training. Public courses run at our nearby Manchester and Stockport venues.
From the cafés, salons, dental practices and independent retailers around Atherton and Tyldesley, to the nurseries and primary schools across Astley, to the care homes throughout Leigh, we train them all.
Our courses are different. No 6-hour PowerPoint sessions. No boring drills. Just engaging, practical, life-saving training that sticks, delivered by award-winning trainers. Hands-on practice with CPR manikins, anti-choking jackets and EpiPens. Real scenarios, real skills. We’re equally happy at a single-room nursery or a 50-staff workplace.

Katie was very nice and clear in her explanations. The course we attended was quite brief but not boring at all. Recommended.
Really good course, Katie was very helpful and friendly. Definitely learnt a lot from her.
Excellent training and giving brilliant real-life experience and examples to use in business and personal.
Very informative and educational with a relaxed and laid-back attitude.
Did a day-long First Aid certification with Karen. Very informative and was much more engaging than previous First Aid training cases I've done.
Karen was brilliant, taught us First Aid calmly and answered all questions with a great depth of knowledge.
