We don't like blowing our own trumpet – so take a look at what some of our customers have had to say about us.

Whenever you choose something new, you like to know if anyone else has used that service and most importantly what they have to say about it all. First Aid and Health & Safety Training is no different, which is why we share the comments from our customers with you. Hope you like what you read, Helen & Steve, Purple Dog, Huddersfield

 

Steve from Purple Dog delivered our CPD First Aid training. We had the course delivered at a time that was convenient for our practice. It was by far the most fun, engaging and informative course that we have experienced

R. Dilley, Town Hall Dental (May 2017)

 

My nursery staff attended a Paediatric First Aid course with Purple Dog in April 2017. As it was the first time I had booked training with Purple Dog, I was keen to ask my staff what they had thought of the training. The feedback was overwhelmingly positive, they felt the teaching style was fun and engaging and as a result they had left feeling both confident and competent in their vitally important first aid skills. I was so impressed by the feedback, that I am looking at further training with Purple Dog

When booking a First Aid course for Honley Cricket Club, we wanted the course to be fun, informative & run at a time to suit us. The booking process was easy & straight-forward and Steve was excellent at delivering the course for us. He had an abundance of knowledge and experience, making the course specific to sporting injuries. He also allowed plenty of time for demonstrations and practise, which brought the course to life. We would have no hesitation in recommending Purple Dog for First Aid courses.

C. Coombs, Honley Cricket Club (March 2017)

 

Had a fantastic day at Purple Dog today. Feeling much more confident should an emergency or anything 'orrible happen. I would recommend Purple Dog to anyone. #ADayWellSpent! Thank you Purple Dog

Highly recommend these guys!! A fun way to learn essential knowledge that could save someone's life!!!! Was very nervous about attending but I was put at total ease with their friendly approach!!! Both Steve and Gavin taught with a hands on approach, very supportive and encouraging!!!! See you in 3 years guys.

The training provider of choice :-) Steve is completely passionate about his subject and it shows. I would trust anyone who has been passed as competant by Purple Dog as this is where they differ from other training providers - they make sure you are ACTUALLY competent, it's not just a tick-box kind of company!

B Ramage (March 2017)

 

Friendly and approachable staff who are well practised in the subjects they deliver training on. I hope to see them all again soon.

Really good baby first aid course with Helen yesterday. She has a very good way of teaching you really important things in a very relaxed enjoyable way. I certainly will remember how to do baby CPR now. As Helen said at the end I hope it was a waste of time. Highly recommended for parents especially new ones. ????????

We used Purple Dog again, as we knew that the course would be delivered in the right way for the staff...We take the care & safety of the children in our nursery very seriously & wanted to ensure we had the best training. Purple Dog provided this.

A.Lee, Little Acorns (Nov 2016)

 

I decided to try Purple Dog Ltd as they were local & I'd heard good things about them. The training was the best I've had, so much so that we are going to use them for all First Aid training & will be booking H&S courses with them as well.

C Bond, Colin Appleyard (Oct 2016)

 

We were in need of urgent training to ensure the well being of children in our school. We approached Purple Dog and they were approachable, efficient and professional and able to offer us the training within the week. The learning was tailored to our needs and was delivered in a way that was fun as well as informative. Our staff came away from the training feeling knowledgeable and much more confident in being able to administer treatment and first aid if required. Purple Dog were able to offer a service in a short time scale and delivered it to some teachers and support staff and as a result I would have no hesitation in recommending them.

C. Hamilton, Moldgreen Community Primary School (Oct 2016)

 

I have been a first Aider at school for a number of years, I have done lots of First Aid courses during this time. Purple Dog deliver the best courses I have done.

S. Broadhead, Kirkheaton Primary School (Oct 2016)

 

I did a First Aid At Work course with Purple Dog last week – I was expecting it to be a bit dull and that I’d be sat watching videos all day but it turned out to be good fun. The tutor got everyone talking and the atmosphere was warm and friendly with plenty of laughs. The booking process was really easy too.

G. Edwards. Clive Brook (Oct 2016)

 

When looking for a training company, we wanted one that showed us they understood our industry, ran quality courses & were friendly & professional. Purple Dog ticked all the boxes for us & we will be going back for more training.

Lucy W, Yorkshire Sport Foundation (Oct 2016)

 

A fantastic first aid course for new parents & grandparents...delivered in a fun & engaging way...The atmosphere was relaxed meaning it was easy to take part with baby in tow! We now feel much more confident we would know what to do in an emergency.

Amy B (Aug 2016)

 

I just wanted to say thank you for arranging the training for me. I have to say that it was the best CPR training I have attended and I will definitely be back in touch to renew my training in the future.

Terry C, Huddersfield Neuro Physiotherapy (August 2016)

 

Purple Dog ran a Paediatric First Aid course at our nursery. This made the training convenient & specific to our setting. Steve made the sessions fun & interactive, making sure we would know how to respond in a First Aid situation.

Donna B, The Hollytree Nursery (June 2016)

 

Aaron was friendly and funny but not in a patronising or embarrassing way he got it just right. I felt apprehensive about 3 days with people I'd never met before but within the first half hour I was fine, and looked forward to the next 2 days.

Ruth. C, LA Employee(June 2016)

 

Your trainer really cared. It mattered to him not only that I passed, but that I could demonstrate my new skills to him- brilliant!!. So different from the last course I did with a coloured cross!

John B. Private Company (June 2016)

 

We thoroughly enjoyed the First Aid course. The style of the trainer kept us engaged & assisted our learning throughout the day. The course was fun & interesting with plenty of practical, hands on involvement and lots of laughter.

Tracy H, Pennine Domestic Violence Group (June 2016)

 

I just would like to say a big thank you for the training you delivered for us. Steve and Aaron were just amazing and the staff felt they had learned so much in a fun and relaxed atmosphere that they both had created.

Jan B, Lindley CE Infant School (June 2016)

 

Our experience of the Purple Dog First Aid At Work course was overwhelmingly positive, all of the staff got a lot out of the course and now feel confident that they would deal competently with a First Aid situation.

Rebekah M. Kirklees High School (May 2016)

 

Steve at Purple Dog ran a Paediatric First Aid course for us that was both fun and informative. Steve's enthusiasm and knowledge meant that learning was easy and we all passed! I will be booking more courses.

Lisa H, Private Childminder with staff(May 2016)

 

I would particularly like to to say thank you and pass on my appreciation regarding the skill and enthusiasm of Steve Moss for the tremendous Level 3 First Aid at Work course he delivered to me and my fellow colleagues this last month.

Ken Pearce. Marketing Consultant (May 2016)

 

Purple Dog has been thoroughly professional and deployed a fantastic enthusiasm to the learning of a somewhat difficult subject matter.

Zakir D. Private Day Nursery Kirklees(February 2016)

 

A very informative Level 3 Paediatric First Aid course...Highly recommended.
