We can recreate scenarios that match your situation in a safe and controlled training environment. Our training rooms are individually designed to maximise the learning experience and we are always ready to welcome you with a brew and a smile.

Mobile Training Unit
Our Mobile Training Unit has been designed to bring all the innovation of our North-West facility directly to your site. The Unit can replicate confined space and working at height scenarios. We can even fill the unit with smoke and record activity so that you can watch back your activity and get feedback.

Self-sufficient
Our Mobile Training Unit is quick and easy to set up on site. It can fit in the carpark or a siding. all it needs is somewhere to plug in for power and in around 30 minutes it is ready to go.
A complete training centre on wheels
The Mobile Training Unit comes complete with everything that is needed for the course. Our training admin team will liaise with you prior to the course starting to agree any specialist kit requirements.
Confined space
The Health & Safety Executive describes a confined space as, a 'space is one which is both enclosed, or largely enclosed, and which also has a reasonably foreseeable risk to workers of fire, explosion, loss of consciousness, asphyxiation or drowning'.
Working at height
The HSE define working at height as working 'in any place where, if precautions were not taken, a person could fall a distance liable to cause personal injury.' Whether you working on a stairway, ladder, scaffolding or climbing a tower, knowing the risks and how to work safely are vital.
Telecommunications
It is not always practical or possible to train in situ, at the top of a working telecommunications mast. At Reax we have two training masts in our purpose built training facility. You can train in a safe and dry environment with direct feedback and support from our instructors.
First aid
A 2021 HSE report stated over 400,000 people sustained a workplace injury. Any company with over 25 employees needs to have at least one trained first aider. However, all businesses can benefit from the peace of mind of having a first aider on-site.
Rescue Skills
Being prepared for the worst and knowing how to get your team out safely when things go wrong is a key skill when working at height or in a confined space. Reax can provided rescue skills training that will give your team added confidence.
