Our Story
Red Fox Learning was founded by Deborah, a highly experienced trainer with nearly 40 years of first aid experience and a background in Learning & Development and Masters‑level teaching.
After years of delivering training in corporate, clinical, and community settings, she saw a need for first aid courses that were:
🦊Clear
🦊Practical
🦊Friendly
🦊And genuinely confidence‑building
So Red Fox Learning was created — a place where anyone can learn life‑saving skills in a supportive, relaxed environment.
