Once again we are indebted to Marty for arranged and providing, ‘The First on Scene First Aid’ course which will take place on Sunday 18th March 2012, starting at 9am and finish around 4pm.
These courses have been run over the last three years and those who have attended will tell you that not only is it a first class course but a real good laugh as well. Marty assures me that he has a new set of jokes.
The First on scene First Aid Course was designed by the Boundary and Marty and is active and practical in nature. Students will receive ‘class-room tuition’ but will spend a significant proportion of their time in the open, dressed in their motorcycle clothing dealing with a variety of incidents they may come across whilst out and about on their motorcycles.
Not only does the course deal with Basic Life Skills but looks at practical problems/solutions in making a ‘scene safe’.
The course will be held in the Community engagement building attached to Stranton fire station in Stockton Street, Hartlepool.
The building is a large blue porta-cabin style within the fire station with access from the front off Stockton street next to the station appliance bays; right hand side as you look at the station; and access from the station yard off Clark street.
There is no parking on site for cars inside the station yard, bikes will be allowed in. There is parking in Clark street and four parking bays near the access door at the front of the building one being a disabled bay; this can be used as we will have the building to ourselves.
Please do not go to the station for information or access Marty will be there from 0830. If you come in the station yard on foot, walk straight towards the blue building and come in the side door, not the one near the cars.
If you come into the yard on a bike, park as close to the rear of the fire engine next to the blue building. If you come to the front the first door up the ramp will be open come in and ring the bell.
The cost of the course is £15 . There will be tea/coffee and biscuits available but you will be required to bring their lunch with them.
It is better if people come on bikes with their gear on for obvious reasons. If people have to come by car please bring you motorcycle riding gear including helmet with you.
The course will be to HSE standards and accredited. The course is classed as an Emergency first aid certificate.
There are twelve places available and its on a first come first served basis. Add your names to the thread on the forum at;
