Quite. I deal with non breathing patients every day. It's an outrage. Got a cut on your foot? Want a plaster? Ha! We know how to amputate it above the knee. That's got to be worth a few extra quid!

I don't get any money for being a First Aider but I do get my training which I use outside of my job paid for. Its a life skill and a very necessary one.

I personally don't get paid for being a First Aider. Do you get paid for either of the above?? And if you do, how much do you receive, gross?

Genuinely interested so please let me know! Then I can stir it up here and get us lot some reddies for our services!
When I worked for BA (about 10 yrs ago) it was £105 a year.
