📢 An exciting delivery and a great day of learning!

Yesterday, we were delighted to receive our new Brayden ALS manikin from Innosonian Europe and spend time getting to know its full capabilities. Huge thanks to Gavin Dolman and Paul Mulvey for the expert introduction and support.

We can’t wait to see Brayden in action on our training courses from May, supporting ICC, PHEC, and PHEA Assist Day delivery. As part of our ongoing commitment to high-quality education, we’ve been working hard this year to refresh our training kit and ensure our teaching and scenario-based learning are as realistic and reflective of delegates’ lived experience as possible.

📢 We’re also pleased to announce that Innosonian Europe will be sponsoring the poster competition at The Pre-Hospital Care Conference, taking place on 8–9 October. Check out this webpage for details about entering: https://www.basics.org.uk/prehospitalcareconference2026/

Innosonian Europe and their sister company WEL Medical Ltd will be exhibiting at the conference — make sure to visit their stand and take part in their CPR competition for a chance to win a Brayden Advanced BLS manikin with AED trainer or a defibrillator with cabinet! 🏆

👏 We’re proud to be working with organisations that share our passion for excellent pre-hospital education.
