"1st Option Safety has covered our health and safety needs for over 5 years. In this time, we’ve received specialist training, equipment and on site support for all of our popular productions and nothing has ever been too much trouble or too short notice for them."

"Guys, you’re just incredible! And these are not only words. It was very important for me to see the level of professionalism I’m aiming at now. Medical sessions are my first serious lessons of first aid – simple things that can save someone’s life. I am sure that the mistakes we made happened because this course is very intense and we had very little prior experience. Now we will improve. I’ve learned a lot. Thank you very much."
