British Association of Ski Patrollers

The British Association of Ski Patrollers (BASP) provides quality training in first aid and Ski Rescue, Scottish Ski Areas approved. We are the first point of contact among many outdoor enthusiasts who require knowledge of basic emergency first aid. BASP is known and respected within the International ski patrol world through the International Ski Patrol Federation (FIPS).

We provide First Aid for outdoor users who spend their work or recreation time in an environment where the normal emergency services cannot access or may be delayed by time or distance. We are approved by the Health and Safety Executive as a First Aid at Work provider. Our courses are particularly suitable for all the British National Governing Body awards (NGB’s). BASP can provide practical First Aid training for anyone; in the work place, home, hotel, office or at leisure we can train you.

Our Instructors teach from a wealth of knowledge and practical “hands on” experience from ski patrol and mountain rescue. We run courses of just a few hours, AED (Defibrillation) training, to several days for those wishing to train as Ski Patrol or Rescuers who require more advanced Emergency Medical Technician training.
