Making First Aid Accessible for All
At FabTraining, we believe that everyone should have access to essential first aid skills—no matter their age, background, or circumstances. That’s why we created the Fab First Aid Fund, a unique initiative that helps make first aid training more accessible to local schools, groups, and community organisations.
🌟 Why We Set Up the Fund
The idea for the Fab First Aid Fund came from our deep-rooted belief that first aid saves lives and that knowledge should never be limited by budget. We saw firsthand how many schools and small community groups struggled to access training due to financial constraints. So, we decided to take action.
By setting aside a portion of our profits the Fab First Aid Fund was born. It allows us to provide free or heavily subsidised training to those who need it most.
🛠️ How It Works
Each year, we allocate a set budget from the fund to support local initiatives. Schools, clubs, and community groups can apply for support by filling out a simple online form. We review each request carefully, making decisions based on impact, need, and availability.
In the past, the Fab First Aid Fund has supported:
Free CPR training for local sports clubs
First aid awareness sessions for parent groups
Mini Medics courses in primary schools
Equipment donations to youth groups
Every penny in the fund is used to promote lifesaving knowledge and community resilience.
🧒🏽 The Latest Initiative: Free Mini Medics for Schools This Summer
We're excited to announce that this summer term (May–July), we’re inviting local schools to apply for a free Mini Medics first aid session, funded entirely by the Fab First Aid Fund!
The Mini Medics programme is designed for children aged 7–11. It’s a fun, interactive way to introduce young people to basic first aid and emergency awareness. From learning how to call 999 to understanding how to help someone who’s unresponsive, these sessions build confidence, skills, and a real sense of responsibility.
We’re aiming to deliver sessions inat least 10 local schools but we’d love to do more, depending on demand and available funds.
✏️ How Schools Can Get Involved
If you work at or know a school that would benefit from a Mini Medics session this summer, we’d love to hear from you!
