I needed some ‘not your average’ confined space training for some quite specific tight spaces – I really didn’t want to just learn about A frames! MRS listened to my needs and delivered a great course that really helped drive home the need for care and safety and provided the knowledge required when dealing with confined space that altered the trainees’ ways of working.

Just want to say a massive thanks for the recent confined space course that HIS attended this week, Tori was amazing as an instructor and really assisted me when I had some difficulties with one element of the course for which I am very grateful. All the attendees are saying it is the best course they have ever attended we will be looking to book more some courses in the near future. Please pass on my thanks to Tori.

Mick Barry, Framework Manager, Hargreaves Industrial Services

MRS are always helpful and professional and always work flexibly to meet our requirements.

Truly excellent training centre, I pass my personal thanks to Dave Halliday. A very professional and knowledgeable trainer, who keeps blokes who normally work outside, from falling asleep in a classroom. 100% recommended to anyone looking for this type of training course.

Christian Wilkinson, Smith Brothers (Contracting) Ltd

A very well presented and detailed course that provided exactly the information required.
