THE Ribble Valley Centre of the British Red Cross will be commencing their autumn first aid training course on Thursday, September 20, at 7pm, at their centre in Back King Street, Clitheroe.

Lasting 13 weeks, it will include the new techniques issued by the European Resuscitation Council in July this year.

There are a limited number of vacancies and anyone interested is urged to contact Wendy Entwistle on 01772 424965 as soon as possible.

For some time, the Ribble Valley Red Cross centre has been offering short taster sessions in first aid to local charitable organisations. There is no charge for these courses and it is possible to tailor them to meet any individual needs of the organisation.
