I never received it either and it should have been here by now if it was going to come.

I got one of these booklets when they were last available. They are a good memory aid if it is a while since you did a first aid course. I would recommend that anyone in employnent volunteers to be a workplace first aider. The course and periodic refreshers are then paid for by your employer but are useful to you everywhere you go.

After receiving the booklet I was inundated with calls trying to get me to donate monthly. I know charities are having a hard time of it just now and I will willingly give what I can when I can to good causes BUT this was harasssment. :mad:Calls came at night as well as during the day. Having elderly relatives I couldn't not answer the phone either. After loosing my job and having no prospects of getting another, I was feeling low anyway. I felt that I had to explain myself and circumstances, over and over. They have an answer for everything. When I'm my usual self I can say "no thank you " as a broken record and still leave the conversation on an up beat rather than get into a discussion.

Summary - get the booklet and use it but have your answers ready or give a false tele. no.

Excellent thanks

Hopefully it'll be totally useless (as in hopefully I'll never need it) but just in case its nice to have it and be able to know basic first aid.

I've just ordered my copy, thank you :T. This will be useful and informative as I am considering training to be a first aider at work. Also it's always good to be prepared just in case!

Pity they didn't offer as a pdf download. I know they will want to build their database of potential donors but they are nevertheless wasting resources on print and posting if people are happy to download (and perhaps donate as well).

I think the paper copy is useful to carry round and refer to if necessary in an emergency!
