Whether you're an individual looking to upskill or an organisation seeking to meet legal requirements, our training is tailored to meet your needs with professionalism, expertise and care.
First aid is more than just a workplace requirement. It is a vital life skill that can make the difference between a minor incident and a life-threatening emergency. At CTR Care Training, we make first aid accessible, relevant and engaging for people of all backgrounds across Wales, from urban centres to rural communities. Our aim is to make Wales a safer place—one course, one learner, and one life-saving action at a time.
Your Local Experts in First Aid Training
Based in South Wales and delivering across the nation, CTR Care Training brings local knowledge and national standards together to deliver first aid training in Wales with a personal, responsive touch. Our experienced trainers come from healthcare, care and emergency service backgrounds, bringing a wealth of practical knowledge and real-life insight into every session. This means our learners benefit from hands-on teaching and scenarios that reflect real-world emergencies, ensuring that what you learn stays with you long after the course has ended.
We offer courses in convenient locations throughout Wales, including Cardiff, Swansea, Newport, Wrexham, Aberystwyth, Bangor and smaller towns in between. Our network of trainers allows us to deliver flexible, on-site training at workplaces, schools, care homes, community centres and more. We also run regular open courses for individuals who wish to attend as part of their personal or professional development.
Accredited and Compliant First Aid Courses
All of our first aid training in Wales complies with current UK guidelines and standards. This includes regulations set out by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), the Resuscitation Council UK, and Ofsted, depending on the course type. Upon successful completion, learners receive recognised certification that is valid for three years, giving you peace of mind that your training is credible, respected and legally compliant.
Whether you need a basic emergency first aid course, a full First Aid at Work qualification, or paediatric first aid training for a nursery or school setting, we have the right course for you. All training is delivered in plain, easy-to-understand language and adapted to suit your working environment or personal learning style.
First Aid for Workplaces, Communities and Individuals
Our first aid training in Wales is designed to serve a wide range of clients and learners. We regularly work with small businesses, large companies, care providers, schools, colleges, nurseries, charities, and public sector organisations. In addition to employer-led training, we also welcome individuals who want to gain first aid skills for personal development, family safety or voluntary work.
No prior experience is necessary to join one of our courses. We guide you through everything you need to know, from calling emergency services to performing CPR, using a defibrillator, treating wounds, managing choking incidents and more. Everything is taught in a supportive and encouraging environment, where questions are welcomed and practice is central.
For those working in high-risk industries such as construction, manufacturing or agriculture, we also offer training that covers specific risks and scenarios likely to occur in those environments. If you work in a care home or with vulnerable adults, we offer tailored courses that emphasise safeguarding, risk awareness, and supporting people with health conditions.
Paediatric and Family First Aid Training
In addition to workplace-focused courses, CTR Care Training also provides specialist paediatric first aid training in Wales. This is especially important for early years providers, childminders, teachers and parents. These courses focus on the unique needs of babies and children in emergency situations and meet the requirements for those working under the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and Ofsted guidelines.
We also offer shorter family first aid sessions, perfect for parents, grandparents, foster carers or anyone who wants to be more confident in managing childhood injuries, allergic reactions or sudden illness at home. These sessions are particularly popular in community centres, parent groups and family organisations across Wales.
Why First Aid Training Matters in Wales
Wales is a country with both bustling cities and remote rural areas, and emergency services response times can vary significantly depending on location. That makes first aid knowledge especially important. When an incident happens, the actions taken in the first few minutes can be critical. Knowing what to do—and having the confidence to do it—can save lives, reduce the severity of injuries, and improve recovery outcomes.
Our commitment to delivering first aid training in Wales is driven by a desire to strengthen the resilience of communities and workplaces. We want to ensure that wherever you are in Wales, there is someone nearby who knows how to act quickly and effectively in a crisis. By training more people locally, we create safer environments for everyone.
Friendly, Professional and Accessible Training
We understand that learning first aid can feel daunting for some, especially if you have never done it before. That’s why we take pride in delivering training that is relaxed, inclusive and supportive. Our trainers are friendly, approachable and skilled at working with all levels of experience. They take the time to explain everything clearly, offer reassurance and adapt the training to suit the needs of each group.
We also take accessibility seriously. If you or your group have any special requirements—such as learning differences, physical disabilities or language needs—we will do everything we can to make your training experience comfortable and effective. We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to learn life-saving skills, and we will work with you to make that happen.

CTR Care Training offers flexible training options to make it easy for you or your organisation to get trained. We provide open courses at locations across Wales, as well as private group sessions on-site at your venue. Whether you need weekday training, weekend options or evening sessions, we will do our best to accommodate your schedule.
For organisations with multiple staff or those in rural areas, our team can travel to deliver first aid training wherever you are in Wales. We bring everything required with us, including all training equipment, course materials and certification processing. All you need to do is provide a suitable room and we’ll take care of the rest.
