Our purpose-built Southampton training centre is located on the popular Abbey Park Industrial Estate in Romsey. It is easily accessible from all areas of Hampshire, the South East and the South West – and we provide free parking for all course attendees.

We offer a diverse array of training courses at our Southampton centre, tailored for various industries. All our courses are conducted in well-appointed classrooms and dedicated training areas designed for practical learning. 

Courses are instructed by highly qualified trainers, the majority of whom have current or past experience as rescuers.

Facilities

Our Southampton training centre offers a diverse range of facilities tailored for professional development and safety training. Featuring four dedicated training rooms, we ensure ample space for immersive learning experiences.

Standout among our offerings is our confined space facility, meticulously crafted to replicate real-world scenarios. With 5 rooms, a network of crawl spaces, 11 tunnels, and platforms up to 6 meters in length, this environment caters to specialised training needs. Artificial smoke can be added for enhanced realism.

Standing 9 metres high, our indoor scaffold access system serves as a versatile platform for Working at Height training. Equipped with ladders, trap doors, guardrails, and more, it enables comprehensive skill development, including suspended rescue.

Additionally, we provide a mobile tower for PASMA training and specialised facilities for maritime industry training. These include a two-story fire rig for STCW fire training and a dry life raft training area for STCW certification.

Confined Space courses

We are well-known as one of the UK’s leading confined space training providers – and from our Southampton centre, we provide a wide range of confined spaces courses including low, medium and high risk training.

We also provide other confined space services including confined space consultancy – a service where we come to your site, factory, office or ship to identify any risk you may face and any training you need to be compliant. 

Additionally, we offer a rescue cover service, deploying a dedicated rescue team to your business as needed.

Enclosed Space courses

Our enclosed space training facility faithfully recreates real-world conditions, enabling candidates to acquire essential skills through hands-on, practical exercises.

All our confined space and enclosed space courses are designed to teach candidates:

  • Safe enclosed and confined space entry
  • How to work in a safe manner
  • How to escape in emergency situations

STCW Basic Safety Training Courses

We offer all 5 modules of the MCA regulated STCW basic safety training required for individuals embarking on commercial sea-going vessels. These are:

  • Elementary First Aid (EFA)
  • Personal Survival Techniques (PST)
  • Fire Prevention & Fire Fighting (FPFF)
  • Personal Safety & Social Responsibility (PSSR)
  • Proficiency in Security Awareness (PSA)

Each course can be taken individually as well.

If you’re planning to train a team of people or need a tailored course – we can help. All of our training teams across the UK are fully mobile and can travel to your location or site if needed. We have towable training units which allow the teaching of all our confined spaces and working at height courses at any location. 

In addition to this, if you have space – we can come to teach any course you require on site, from first aid to working at heights. If you need mobile training courses don’t hesitate to speak to our team about how we can help – just call 02380 011238 today.

Good course for First Aid at Work, definitely recommend. Great Value for Money and staff are super friendly!

Andrea Knott, Ilika Technologies Ltd

Having just attended a 3 day "working in confined spaces with rescue and BA course" I must highly recommend the MRS team, especially Elliot our trainer who was excellent, very patient and a superb teacher. I would very much recommend anyone working in any industry that uses confined spaces or breathing apparatus to attend one of MRS courses.

Andrew Privett, Portsmouth Water

Fantastic thankyou! Really enjoyed the course.

James Bockett, Marine Accident Investigation Branch

We used MRS as on-site rescue team in one of our investigation projects where they appeared to be very communicative, professional and helpful during the course of the site work. Strongly recommend them.

Farshid Bonakdar, RSK Group

I attended a medium risk confined space hosted by Charlie. Fantastic tutor. A real credit to Mines Rescue. The 2 days went far too fast! Thoroughly professionally throughout. A lovely new building and the training rig is a spectacle to behold. Would highly recommend. Hope to return soon. Thank you MRSL.
