Manual HANDLING  Refresher training (external agencies will be charged) 

Changes to All Our Manual Handling Sessions

We are excited to welcome you to our new look Manual Handling learning programmes.  We have looked at how we deliver these sessions due to the current COVID-19 pandemic.  We have redesigned our training programmes, looking at less face-to-face time, reduced attendees and using a blended model of online training and face-to-face practical sessions. 

We also want to keep everyone safe during these unprecedented times, we have introduced temperature checks prior to commencing the face-to-face sessions.  We have also introduced the wearing of PPE, which we will provide.  You will also notice that the training room has had a face lift too, to adhere to social distancing policies where we can.  We also have intensive hygiene supplies for all our equipment and for your personal use, for the health and safety of everyone.  We look forward to welcoming people back to our training room, where we hope you will have a great learning experience.

Manual Handling Refresher Training 

Welcome to our new Manual Handling Refresher training programme, which includes our fantastic Easy Manual Handling website to support our blended learning model.

Everyone attending will be asked to visit our https://www.easymanualhandling.com website prior to attending face-to-face sessions. We ask that you look at current legislation and watch our videos on chair moves, wheelchairs, assisted walking and equipment.  You will then attend a face-to-face session which will run from 09:30 –13:30.

The refresher course encourages you to revisit and reflect on your current practice through creative activities.  We encourage you to get involved in conversations and demonstration on various techniques to keep you and others safe. We will enable you to practice on a range of interesting and different manual handling equipment, whilst building on your confidence and skills.
