 | Good morning!
Warwick Sport have [finally] organised us a First Aid course. I'm still wringing the details about it but will add them to the news post as soon as I know. (see this website for the canoe news threads: http://www.warwickcanoe.co.uk/site/news/ )
Not going on this course because you're afraid of responsibility is a shit excuse. Don't think because you have been on a first aid course you are responsible if someone hurts themselves, it just means you've got more idea about how to help them if you want to. A little knowledge can go a long long way.
Currently confirmed:
Date: Saturday 13th March Location: Lecture Room - Westwood Games Hall and centre of running track. Times: 9:30am - 6:30pm - this gives 8 hours contact time with 30 min lunch break and two 15 min breaks throughout the day Ambiguous details, to be confirmed:
Price: cheap - either partially or fully subsidised by WS I hope
So, please sign up tomorrow (pronto) if you want to get on it: space will be limited. This course will be useful for almost all people! Whether it's your first First Aid and want to get some background knowledge, or whether you're a coach and need the certificate.
See you at the pool session tonight! Snowman

 | 98/100 message sent so I think that email worked. Please note that priority will be given to people who are club coaches or river leaders and need the certificate to keep their qualifications valid. However, a good number of spaces are available to those who want to get started on building up their knowledge, understanding and experience.

 | No word. You could ask them, but knowing how much effort it was to get the to put this on (took PGL asking for 2 terms, a strategy meeting, and numerous reminding emails), I think you're better off going external.
