I fully recommend The Health and Safety Group as a training provider for mandatory training. - Charles Safapour, Director - Mayday Healthcare Plc
We have been using Health & Safety Group for our mandatory training needs since May 2010. We shopped around for a number of suppliers and found that H&S Group were the most competitive and able to service our precise needs. We are very happy with their service:- They provide the equipment to hold regular training sessions in our office, which allows us to offer local training to our candidates. We get a regular trainer who is reliable, professional and has built a rapport with our candidates. Using H&S Group has allowed us to comply with strict NHS Frameworks. In turn, we have passed our recent audit with flying colours. As a Director of Plan B I would be happy to be contacted as a reference by other organisations that may be interested in using H&S Group as a training provider. - John Anderson, Director - Plan B Healthcare
