FAA Level 3 Award In
Supervising First Aid For Mental Health (RQF)

I recently partook in a training course Ottilia was running on Mental Health in the work place. Her training was fun and engaging and therefore, I took a lot more away from the course than I probably would have just listening to a presentation!! Ottilia is professional, super knowledgeable and great at what she does and I would recommend her all day long. Look forward to partaking in further training with her.
