First aid course – 1st November

North Haven SLSC are looking to run a First Aid course on Sunday 1st November – 9:00 am to 4:00 pm.

The course will be run through First in Sports First Aid – but it is exactly the same course and the same price as that offered by Surf Life Saving SA; for members that is $100. The accreditation you would receive is accepted by surf lifesaving. 

If you need to do your first aid as part of your bronze award you should go through SLSSA because they are offering the same course to those doing their bronze for only $50. 

Members of the public pay $170 at both.

At the moment North Haven SLSC are wanting to gauge how many people are interested in doing the course. They need a minimum of 12 people and a maximum of 20.

If you are interested in doing this course please contact Andrew Edwards at patrols@semaphoreslsc.com.au  or Elaine Farmer from North Haven SLSC at elaine.farmer@outlook.com
