In the summer of 2010 I completed the demanding National Pool Lifeguard Course. The course consists of an intensive 2-week period of physical training and theoretical classroom work, followed by a practical in-water and out-of-water assessment on pool rescue, first aid, CPR and lifeguarding concepts. I was drawn to lifeguarding as it is an amazing public service making people feel confident, happier, safer and the possibility of potentially saving a life. I really enjoyed the challenge of learning something completely different and consider my first aid skills gained invaluable. Saturday 30 April 2011
