First Aid Training Course

The ewe’s and ram’s at Loaghtan Loaded are teaming up with local First Aid trainers to train some of their flock to RYA standard and are offering the opportunity for any other cyclists to become fully RYA First Aid trained at the same time.

If you are a regular on any of the Misfits, Laxey Circus, Loaghtan Loaded, or other cycling groups then this could be the perfect opportunity to gain valuable first aid skills which will benefit your group.

The cost of the course will be FREE!

All we ask in return for this invaluable training is that you sign up to help support this years Conister Bank Longest Day Longest Ride. You will be provided with all the essential equipment and can work in shifts with other people, so you do not have to do the full 24 hours; so long as we have two people on-site at all times we are covered. You’ll even be fed and watered!

If you would like to be considered for this great opportunity please get in touch with either Coops or Gadge by E-mailing info@loaghtanloaded.com Once we have an idea of additional numbers we will provide further details on training dates.
