Local First Aid Training in Ballincollig
Ballincollig is a suburban town within Cork city's administrative area, situated on the western side of the city along the River Lee. With a 2016 population of 18,621, it had grown from a small village into Cork's largest town, largely due to housing development from the 1970s onward. Historically, it was home to the Ballincollig Royal Gunpowder Mills, one of the British Isles' largest gunpowder works, which opened in 1794 and closed in the early 1900s. Today it features a multiplex cinema, library, schools, and a 135-acre regional park. In 2024, it was named Ireland's tidiest town. First aid training in Ballincollig needs to support the suburban workforce, the school community, and the many small businesses.
