• "Thanks Paul, I found the course very informative and enjoyable. I appreciated hearing your thoughts on hypothermia, something I am very conscious of on the hills but I always feel that people think I'm a bit of an idiot for carrying a bit of extra kit. You were very reassuring. " - Remote Emergency Care - Level 1 (REC1)
• "Thanks again for everything, and for being so lovely on the day—it was such a relaxed, engaging session, and I really appreciated the fun, supportive learning atmosphere you created " - Remote Emergency Care - Level 1 (REC1)
