Meet The Trainer – Holly in Chichester, Billingshurst and Haywards Heath

I’m Holly, I’m the local Daisy First Aid Trainer for Chichester, Billingshurst and Haywards Heath.

Here are 5 things about me…

Why I became a Daisy First Aid Trainer….

I am so passionate about First Aid, I believe it’s such a valuable skill which everyone should learn, especially parents. I taught as a freelance trainer for Daisy First aid last year and loved it so much I decided to take on my own area.

My background/own experience…

I’ve been lucky enough to travel the world as Cabin Crew since I was 18. Every year I must complete my refresher training which includes first aid. We are trained to deal with everything from minor injuries to cardiac arrest and CPR. I particularly enjoy the first aid element to being cabin crew.

I’ve dealt with all sorts of medical emergencies onboard the aircraft and it’s proven to me just how valuable having first aid skills can be. It can literally be the difference between life and death.

I am also Mum and since having children (especially clumsy inquisitive children) it’s reiterated just how important having first aid knowledge really is. How you act in those first few moments is vital.
