Essential to know

• Known as ‘+F’ this bolt-on course can be added to Emergency First Aid at Work or First Aid at Work qualifications. It can also be run as a stand-alone upskill course for delegates that hold existing, valid Emergency First Aid at Work or First Aid at Work qualifications.

• The Forestry Commission requires that contractors, hauliers and others wishing to work on Forestry Commission land need to show that they comply with their first aid policy, by holding the appropriate certificate, with evidence of the ‘+F’ upskill.
