Paediatric First Aid Celebrates Training Milestone and Announces Nationwide Expansion
Paediatric First Aid, the UK’s leading provider of specialist first aid training for childcare professionals, today announced it has successfully trained over 20,000 learners, marking a significant milestone in its mission to enhance child safety across the nation.
Building on this achievement, the company has unveiled plans for an ambitious nationwide expansion that will bring its expert-led, hands-on training programmes to more regions throughout the UK, helping to ensure that childcare professionals everywhere have access to high-quality first aid education.

A Commitment to Child Safety
Since its establishment, Paediatric First Aid has been dedicated to providing comprehensive first aid training tailored specifically to those working with children. The company’s specially designed courses have equipped thousands of childcare practitioners, teachers, nursery staff, and parents with the knowledge and skills needed to respond confidently in emergency situations involving infants and children.
“Reaching 20,000 trained learners is more than just a number for us,” says Sarah Jeffries, Director of Paediatric First Aid. “It represents 20,000 professionals who are now prepared to take immediate action in those critical moments when a child might need life-saving intervention. We’re incredibly proud of the positive impact our training has had on child safety across the UK.”
The milestone coincides with recent research highlighting the vital importance of specialised paediatric first aid training. According to statistics from the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents, over 40,000 children under the age of five are admitted to hospital following accidents in the home each year. First aid intervention by properly trained adults can significantly reduce the severity of injuries and, in some cases, save lives.
National Expansion Plans
The company’s expansion strategy includes opening new training centres in key locations throughout the UK, starting with facilities in Manchester, Birmingham, Glasgow, and Cardiff scheduled to open within the next six months. Additional centres in Newcastle, Bristol, Southampton, and Belfast are planned for early 2026.
This growth will be supported by the recruitment of over 30 new certified trainers, all of whom will undergo Paediatric First Aid’s rigorous instructor qualification programme to ensure consistent, high-quality training across all locations.
“We’ve seen increasing demand for our services in regions where we previously had limited presence,” explains Sarah Jeffries. “Our expansion is a direct response to this need. We believe every childcare professional in the UK should have access to the highest standard of paediatric first aid training, regardless of their location.”
The company is investing over £2 million in the expansion, which includes state-of-the-art training equipment, realistic simulation models, and innovative digital learning resources to complement hands-on training sessions.
Enhancing Training Standards
As part of this growth phase, Paediatric First Aid is also introducing enhanced course offerings that reflect the latest medical guidelines and emergency response protocols. New specialised modules include managing allergic reactions and anaphylaxis, responding to febrile seizures, and addressing mental health emergencies in older children.
The company has worked closely with paediatric healthcare professionals to develop these new training components, ensuring all content is medically accurate and reflects current best practices.
Paediatric first aid training addresses the unique needs of children in emergency situations. Children’s physiology, psychology, and the types of emergencies they experience differ significantly from adults. The specialised training that Paediatric First Aid provides is essential for anyone responsible for children’s wellbeing, focusing on age-appropriate techniques and responses.
Industry Recognition and Regulatory Compliance
Paediatric First Aid’s training programmes are fully compliant with Ofsted and Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) requirements. The company’s courses are recognised by all relevant regulatory bodies, ensuring that participants receive certification that meets industry standards and legal requirements.
Community Impact and Corporate Responsibility
Alongside its commercial operations, Paediatric First Aid has demonstrated a commitment to broader social impact through its community outreach programme. Over the past year, the company has provided free or subsidised training to over 100 individuals working in underfunded community childcare settings.
The expansion will see this programme grow, with a commitment to train at least 200 community workers annually by 2027.
“We believe that every child deserves to be in an environment where adults are prepared to respond effectively in an emergency,” says Sarah Jeffries. “Our community programme ensures that financial constraints don’t prevent childcare providers from accessing this essential training.”
Looking to the Future
As Paediatric First Aid embarks on this expansion journey, the company remains focused on its core mission of enhancing child safety through education and skills development.
Future plans include the development of a digital learning platform to complement in-person training, research partnerships with leading paediatric healthcare institutions, and potential international expansion in the coming years.
“Training 20,000 learners is just the beginning,” concludes Jeffries. “With our nationwide expansion, we’re working toward a future where every childcare setting in the UK has staff trained to the highest standards in paediatric first aid. Every child deserves nothing less.”

The event offers a unique opportunity for businesses to explore cutting-edge food innovations from around the world, engage in trade negotiations, and reaffirm Thailand’s position as a global leader in the food industry under the “Thai Kitchen to the World” policy. The show is jointly organized by the Department of International Trade Promotion (DITP) of Ministry of Commerce, Thai Chamber of Commerce, and Koelnmesse Germany.
Mr.Pichai Naripthaphan, Minister of Commerce stated that Thailand has long been globally recognized for its strengths in the food industry—from the abundance and diversity of raw materials to its rich natural resources and unique culinary culture. With these advantages, the government has continuously driven forward the “Thai Kitchen to the World” policy to elevate the quality of Thai food to international standards. As a result, in 2024, Thailand was ranked as the 12th largest food exporter in the world, and the country’s export value in 2025 is projected to reach 1.75 trillion baht, representing a 6.8% increase from the previous year.
THAIFEX – ANUGA ASIA serves as a key mechanism through which the Ministry of Commerce drives the development of Thailand’s food industry. Recognized as the fourth largest food and beverage trade show in the world, the event provides a vital platform for Thai food businesses of all sizes—from SMEs and startups to major corporations—to engage in trade negotiations, build international business partnerships, and expand their export opportunities in a tangible and impactful way.
This year’s edition of THAIFEX – ANUGA ASIA has expanded significantly in both scale and participation. Over 3,200 companies from Thailand and 56 other countries are showcasing their products across more than 6,200 booths, covering every major segment of the food industry—from agricultural products and processed foods to food technologies and related innovations. The event is expected to welcome more than 90,000 trade visitors from 140 countries throughout the trade days, generating a projected trade value of over 98 billion baht, both in immediate orders and within one year following the event.
“The success of this event and the continued growth of the food industry clearly reflect Thailand’s potential to become a global hub for the food business and a trusted food reserve for the world,” said Mr. Pichai. “Thailand is well-equipped on all fronts—with world-class infrastructure, a strong business network, and steadfast government support. These elements play a vital role in building international confidence and positioning Thailand as a future global center for service industries.”

New release from debut author Christie Sikora unveils the tragedy behind the triumph — and the truth behind the silence
Costa Mesa, CA, 18th June 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, The world came to Munich in 1972 to witness dreams come true. What unfolded instead was a tragedy that shook global consciousness — and left behind questions that have remained unanswered for over fifty years.
In her groundbreaking debut, BLOOD and GOLD: Athletes, Tragedies & Dynamism of Peace, Christie Sikora revisits the darkest day in Olympic history with one goal: to reveal the truth — and offer a path toward understanding.
Based entirely on factual truths, BLOOD and GOLD is not just a history lesson — it’s a mirror. Through investigative depth and emotional clarity, Sikora reveals the personal stories, political decisions, and human consequences that converged in Munich. Her mission is clear: to bring light where silence once stood.
“BLOOD and GOLD is not a book about blame,” says Sikora. “It’s a book about accountability, empathy, and awakening. It’s about the lives that were shattered, the voices that were ignored, and the lessons that still haven’t been learned.”
The book explores:
• The historical context that led to the tragedy
• The political missteps and ignored warnings
• The athletes and families caught in the crossfire
• And the urgent need for global peace, personal healing, and deeper truth
Sikora’s work challenges the black-and-white narratives that have dominated for decades, instead presenting a deeply human, powerfully nuanced account. She offers hope — not through idealism, but through courage, conversation, and clarity.
Every purchase of BLOOD and GOLD supports change:
• A $0.25 donation goes to Doctors Without Borders, delivering critical medical aid to crisis zones.
• A $0.25 contribution supports Dynamism to Peace International Foundation, funding trauma recovery programs for women, children, and survivors of violence worldwide.
About the Author
Christie Sikora writes with a voice that is bold, unflinching, and guided by compassion. BLOOD and GOLD is the culmination of years of research, advocacy, and soul-searching — and is already being called a “blueprint for global empathy.” Her goal is to transform not just how we remember, but how we move forward.
Where to Find It
BLOOD and GOLD: Athletes, Tragedies & Dynamism of Peace is now available at authorchristiesikora.com, Barnes & Noble, and select retailers. A nationwide tour of signings, interviews, and online panels will accompany the release.

New York, NY – DigiPay.Guru, a leading provider of next-generation digital payment solutions, has announced the global expansion of its cross-border payment platform. This advanced upgrade is designed to meet the growing needs of banks, fintech companies, and financial institutions across the world. With this move, DigiPay.Guru is reshaping how cross-border transactions are handled by making them faster, more transparent, highly interoperable, and accessible to all.
In today’s world of interconnected economies and mobile workforces, cross-border payments have become essential. Whether it’s migrant workers sending money home or small businesses reaching new markets, a dependable and affordable global payment infrastructure has become a necessity for millions.
This latest advancement reflects DigiPay.Guru’s ongoing commitment to building a more inclusive and efficient financial ecosystem on a global scale.
Bridging the Financial Divide Across Borders
Cross-border payments have traditionally been weighed down by major challenges. These include high transaction fees, long processing times, unclear exchange rates, and tough compliance requirements. Unfortunately, these issues affect underserved communities and emerging markets the most which makes global commerce less accessible to those who need it.
DigiPay.Guru’s upgraded cross-border payment platform removes these obstacles. With a streamlined, API-first solution that includes strong compliance tools and support for multiple currencies, the platform allows users to send and receive funds around the world without the usual complications.
“Our goal is to make global payments more accessible for everyone,” said Rahul Patel, CEO of DigiPay.Guru. “This launch helps financial institutions deliver fast, affordable, and compliant cross-border services to people who rely on them—such as migrant workers, cross-border merchants, and small enterprises.”
Key Features That Make DigiPay.Guru Stand Out
DigiPay.Guru’s cross-border solution includes a range of powerful features that help financial institutions grow their international footprint with confidence:
- Multi-Currency Corridor Support
The platform enables seamless management of different currencies and exchange rates. Institutions can set corridor-specific pricing and offer real-time foreign exchange visibility, resulting in better customer satisfaction and improved profitability. - Peer-to-Peer Remittances
Customers can send secure, real-time transfers internationally using digital wallets, bank accounts, or mobile numbers. This feature is especially helpful for migrant workers sending money home or families sharing funds across countries. - Bulk and Business Payments
Enterprises can send salary payments, vendor payouts, or cross-border invoices to multiple recipients in different currencies with a single action. This functionality supports both SMEs and global payroll teams. - Cross-Border Bill Payments
Users can pay for things like education, utility bills, or insurance across countries. This brings added ease for students, expatriates, and families living abroad. - AML and Sanction Screening
The platform includes built-in KYC checks, anti-money laundering protocols, and real-time sanction screenings. This ensures every transaction complies with international standards while reducing the workload for compliance departments. - Smart Routing and Reconciliation
Transactions are routed intelligently based on speed, cost, and currency corridors. The system also includes a reconciliation dashboard that centralizes data and prepares audit-ready reports. - Agent Network Enablement
The platform enables financial institutions to build agent networks in strategic locations. This makes it easier for customers in cash-based regions to deposit or withdraw funds, bridging the gap between digital and physical banking.
Tackling a Market Worth $156 Trillion
Industry analysts estimate that the global cross-border payments market will surpass $156 trillion by the year 2030. Even today, many individuals and small businesses remain excluded due to high costs and lack of infrastructure. DigiPay.Guru’s solution is designed to fix this imbalance by combining modern fintech capabilities with an inclusive delivery model.
“When institutions use our platform, they are not just saving money. They are also extending financial dignity to the communities they serve,” added Patel. “Our solution helps them stay competitive and relevant in a world where borders matter less and digital access matters more.”
Technology That Delivers Real Impact
The foundation of DigiPay.Guru’s cross-border solution is its flexible, API-first architecture. This makes it easy to deploy, simple to integrate with legacy banking systems, and customizable to meet regional regulations.
The company is also exploring support for blockchain and digital currencies, including decentralized networks. These innovations are part of DigiPay.Guru’s plan to align with global initiatives around modern payment infrastructure like central bank digital currencies and stablecoins.
Supporting Both Banks and Fintech Innovators
DigiPay.Guru’s solution is designed to scale with its partners’ ambitions. Whether a regional bank in Africa wants to start offering international remittance services or a European fintech is planning expansion into Asia, the platform provides the right tools and flexibility. Its modular structure and regulatory support help institutions launch services faster with lower development costs.
Some key use cases include:
- Migrant Remittance Services
- International Payroll and Vendor Payments
- Cross-Border B2B Transactions
- Marketplace Payout-as-a-Service
- Education and Healthcare Payment Solutions
Creating a Future-Ready Ecosystem
Cross-border payment innovation requires collaboration. DigiPay.Guru is actively working with regulators, correspondent banks, telecom providers, money transfer operators, and fintech players to build a more open and inclusive financial system.
By offering open APIs, easy regulatory alignment, and adaptable corridor configurations, DigiPay.Guru invites all ecosystem stakeholders to work together toward real impact across global markets.
The Road Ahead
As financial inclusion continues to be a global priority, DigiPay.Guru’s expanded cross-border capabilities come at an important time. The new solution helps financial institutions modernize their services while unlocking opportunities for unbanked and underserved populations, as well as the increasingly mobile global workforce.
Over the coming year, the company plans to grow its presence in Africa, Latin America, and Southeast Asia. DigiPay.Guru aims to onboard more than 50 financial institutions by the end of 2025.
