I think this could be useful for various folk on here. Perhaps if we set a date in September? Put your hands up if interested.
Hand well and truly up

Would depend on costs for me - I don't need and can't really justify ADR, but would quite like to do it anyway!

My ADR expires in June and I may have cut it a little fine to book refresher training.
If I remember correctly, ADR course costs £1650+VAT (core and explosives) for 3 days and can take up to 16 candidates. There are 2 exams required at £20 each per candidate inclusive.
This is through a company in Somerset, I would imagine cost to be similar to that of other training companies, but would the views be so nice?

Not at that cost 
That is for 16 people so that would work out about £140 per person including VAT and the exam, sounds OK to me. But cheaper would be good.

I've been recommended a course provider. Cost looks to be in the region of £200 plus accommodation on top. Any preferences for a venue guys and girls? Midlands, Leicester area? ADR is valid for 5 years once you pass.
