No Fear CPR/AED Sessions
We believe that everyone should have access to good first aid training sessions, and that’s why we have teamed up with our sister organisation Community Defibs for Rossendale (CDfR) to provide training in the Rossendale Valley.
If you have a group and you want one of our No Fear CPR/AED sessions please have a look at out sister organisation CDfR microsite for more information below.
