"I attended the Train the Trainer people moving and handling course. The course was full of useful information and has helped me to acquire the tools to take and feel confident and competent in training members of staff for their manual handling training. Amanda was brilliant, going through the topics in great detail and helping us with any questions we had along the way." See more
