FREE first aid courses are being rolled out across Neath Port Talbot to help sports teams.
The registered social landlord NPT Homes has expanded the initiative right across the area.
They are hoping the emergency first aid courses will help to equip coaches during future sporting seasons.
The organisation has been holding the three-hour course, which is being held by Hands on First Aid Training based in Baglan, at its training centre in Briton Ferry.

So far, members of Aberavon Green Stars, Baglan RFC, Bryncoch RFC, Bryncoch AFC, Baglan Blazers, Bryn Rovers AFC, Llandarcy AFC and Resolven RFC, have all been taking advantage of the free training course.

Andrew Roberts, from Aberavon Green Stars, said: "Thanks to NPT Homes we will now have trained first aiders at all of our games and tournaments taking place this season. Hands on First Aid Training gave us all the skills we need to deliver first aid with confidence. It was not only enjoyable but also very educational and informative."

A second course is being planned for January 19, 2015. Contact NPT Homes by calling 01639 505860 or emailing media@npthomes.co.uk
