About Us

Wesley.jpg

Your Trainer

Essex First Aid and Wellbeing or EFAW was started by Wes.  Years working in service sectors such as Lifeguarding (UK and America), Sports Development, Fitness and Wellbeing, Open Water Swimming and the Fire Service, saw him gain the knowledge and understanding for First Aid and Mental Health and Wellbeing.

 

Serving as a Full time Firefighter since 2006, Wes has been involved in many incidents that have ranged from delivering basic First Aid, to life saving CPR, giving him a wide range of knowledge and experience in the field.  The 7/7 bombings, the London riots and the Grenfell disaster are among some of the major historical incidents he has seen or been involved in.  At work Wes is a Mental Health First Aider and has spent the last 10 years helping Open Water Swimmers achieve their goals.  

Venues and On-Site Training

Our venue in Elmstead Market provides Facilities for all lunch requirements.  Shops are a stones throw away.  With some beautiful scenery on your our doorstep to enjoy those all important breaks and lunches, its a lovely venue to learn in.  Free Parking is available and the nearest Train stations are Wivenhoe and Alresford.  

​

We can also come to your place of work to deliver the training you need.  Take a look at our on-site training page for more information.
