 ... guess; it's a neat way of keeping some basics together. The small first aid guide does explain about the recovery position and such-like, which is useful, and the diagrams are reasonably clear and helpful. At £7.99 from Boots, it's a little disappointing, I'd say. But you can always add small bits and pieces to it, as far as the bag will allow. It's fine for lumps and bumps, scratches and grazes you or your family might acquire on a day out....more

Boots Travel First Aid Kit: Travel First Aid Kit (481 words)

When we went on our boating holiday, we decided to take a small first aid kit with us, and I bought this one pretty much at random from Boots. The kit comes in a green bag, which is about a hand-span (6"x 6") in size, square, and labelled with the legend 'Boots Travel First Aid Kit' and the traditional cross. The bag is padded, with sturdy tight-woven material that repels liquid, so the contents stay reasonably dry and secure, unless it's tested too hard. The zipper would probably let water in. In normal circumstances, kept in a rucksack or pocket of a tent, it would be fine. Immersed in water, not so much. While we were on holiday, it lived on a ...  Read the complete review

At home I have a fairly complete medicine cupboard. It's up out of the way even though we don't have kids, and it's stocked with most of the usual stuff you'd expect - plasters, micropore tape, antiseptic cream, sterile dressings, crepe bandages, a sling and even a neck brace from when I used to suffer badly with neck and shoulder problems. I've also got quite a lot of medications in there as hubby and I both suffer health issues. Anyway, in our car, in the glove box we keep a baby kit. It's always been in a simple tupperware tub and is really just a few basics - a sealed tube of sterile water, a couple of sterile dressings, couple of plasters, mini ...  Read the complete review

Boots Travel First Aid Kit: Not the best first aid kit I've ever seen! (643 words)

Having three children a first aid kit is essential. I'm pretty organised when it comes to my main first aid kit in the bathroom but didn't realise I hadn't got any first aid items in my car until I needed them. After a very stressful day where my three year old cut her head and I had nothing apart from the clothes I was wearing to stem the flow of blood, I realised I needed a first aid kit I could pop in the glovebox and leave there. I chose this one from Boots simply because I had fallen out of love with my Advantage Card and wanted to use up all the points on it before binning it. It is a double-zipped canvas pouch which has clear plastic ...  Read the complete review

When I first got a car my Nan kept telling me to get a first aid kit for it, just in case I needed it. I was 17 at the time and thought I would never need anything like that. I always had a plaster kicking about the bottom of my bag and that was enough. But in the summer holidays I took my niece and nephew out a few times and I realised that a first aid kit would have been so useful, so while I was in Boots I noticed their Travel First Aid kit. It was £7.99 and I had some vouchers so I picked one up. The Travel First Aid kit is only a basic little kit but it does cover most small first aid needs. It comes in a dark green nylon bag which has a double zip. ...  Read the complete review

Boots Travel First Aid Kit: Not really a first aid kit....more a kit for scraped knees. (525 words)

As I am a nurse, I am particularly aware of the importance of having some basic first aid equipment when traveling - and I have always put together my own first aid kits depending on the area of the world I am visiting and what type of trip I am going on. However, in July last year, my family and I took a sedate camping trip to Yosemite and, as such, didn't really think it was necessary to take much in the way of first aid - and so I left it to my partner to pick up a basic first aid kit. We therefore ended up with Boots Travel First Aid Kit which cost £7.00 from Boots on the High Street - and I was less than impressed with its contents. The First Aid kit ...  Read the complete review
