As the Scouts at St Patrick’s (1st Jordanstown) work their way through the various Training Programmes throughout the year
As we make our way through what always turns out to be a fairly comprehensive training programme at St Patrick’s (1st Jordanstown Scouts) we are always trying to find ways that can take this training and “keep it live”. This is so that others can find out more about what we do and also where possible learn a little more about the skills and training that is on offer to all of the Scouts here at St Patricks.
Nowhere is this more pertinent perhaps than in the area of First Aid. Each Scout as they make their way through the Scouting Programme here is invited to take part in basic First Aid Training which will help them twofold. Firstly it will help them fulfill part of the Scouts Motto “to help other people” and secondly it might also help them save a life if they are ever in such a position to call upon this training.
Lastly and let’s not forget that Scouting is also about ongoing training and self measurement, successful completion of such training also qualifies them for the First Aid Badge….and where would scouting be with badge work? 
To supplement this training we are going to develop our own internal training section of the Web site and the first stages of this development are the various pages that can be found on the upper right part of this page.
In the meantime let us leave you with video examples of his useful this training can actually be:
