Highly recommend.”

“We recently had the pleasure of completing first aid training with Renegade First Aid, and I can confidently say it was a 5-star experience from start to finish. Renee was absolutely amazing—her knowledge, energy, and passion for teaching really stood out. She made the entire course incredibly engaging and interactive, which kept our whole team at Gisborne Dental Group involved and interested throughout. Rather than just being a standard, textbook-style session, Renee brought real-life scenarios, practical demonstrations, and a sense of fun that made the learning experience both enjoyable and memorable. Our team walked away feeling much more confident and prepared, and that’s a testament to Renee’s fantastic teaching style. We couldn’t recommend Renegade First Aid more highly—and the team at Gisborne Dental Group would love to thank you for such an enjoyable day.”
