At Breakaway & Restraint Specialists Ltd (BRS), we’re committed to delivering practical, hands-on training that gives people the confidence to manage challenging workplace situations safely. The latest feedback from our attendees speaks volumes about the impact of our breakaway and restraint courses.

One participant said, "One of the best training sessions we have had. The instructor was very knowledgeable and had brilliant communication with the group."

This kind of response reinforces the effort we put into making sure every session is engaging and informative.

Another attendee highlighted the accessibility of the training: "Thank you, as a person who struggles to learn in an academic setting and via PowerPoint, this training was perfect." We know that not everyone learns best through slides and lectures, so we make sure our courses are interactive, practical, and easy to follow. When we use PowerPoint, it's there as a backdrop, not the main event!

"Fantastic trainers and training," said another, while someone else added, "Brilliant training and delivered in a way that was interesting." Our trainers work hard to keep things clear, engaging, and relevant - we really do sit down together as a training team and over coffee and long afternoons work and rework our content.

One participant even joked, "Brilliant course, great instructors, I wouldn’t like to cross your family!" – a testament to the confidence they gained from the training and how we really try and inject some fun where possible into the courses.

Another attendee summed it up simply: "This course has been the best breakaway & restraint training I have been given."

We also ensure that everyone feels comfortable, no matter their background or experience. One participant shared, "I was really apprehensive before training due to my body size, but they made me feel comfortable and kept the pace of the sessions to keep us focused." This is a really important one for us: Creating a positive learning environment is a priority for us, and we’re glad that comes across. We also do try and get the message across that technique is everything.

Another participant described the course as "absolutely well worth attending," saying, "I have gained so much valuable information and practical skills to use in the future."

Finally, one person put it perfectly: "The trainers were very informative and explained all the moves. Felt very comfortable and really enjoyed the course. Learnt a lot and feel more relaxed if anything were to happen."

Nick Attard, General Manager at BRS, reflected on the feedback: "It’s always great to hear how much people take away from our courses. We focus on real-world, applicable skills that help people feel safer and more confident in their workplaces, and this kind of response makes it all worthwhile."

A huge thank you to everyone who attended and shared their feedback – we look forward to continuing to provide high-quality training that makes a real difference.
