Types of Training
Having delivered our Lifeguard training for many years, Kate also recently delivered the NPSQ course which I attended, along with team leaders, because I believe its necessary for Managers and Supervisors of Lifeguards to have a more in depth knowledge of Health & Safety to safely Manage their Swimming Pools and lifeguards.
Kate has an amazing way of educating course attendees on all things Health and Safety. It’s always informative and fun at the same time. A great course for all those managing pools.”
