Hi Guys,
I’m very interested in doing the Fire Marshal and First Aid training that is offered to the unemployed.
I’m currently based in Hartlepool busy doing my CSCS card, which will be complete by 26/04/21.
How would I go about applying for the above-mentioned courses?
Thanks in advance
Kind Regards
Alex Brunton
