About Training 999

Meet Barry Mullarkey – Director of Training 999 Ltd

Hi, I’m Barry Mullarkey, Director and founder of Training 999 Ltd, East Anglia’s leading first aid training company. As a registered NHS Paramedic with extensive frontline emergency ambulance experience, I bring real-world expertise to every first aid course we deliver across Suffolk, Norfolk, Cambridgeshire and Essex.

Professional Background & Qualifications

My healthcare journey began with Adult Nursing studies in London, where I graduated with a DipHE before progressing to become a qualified NHS Paramedic. This combination of nursing education and paramedic practice provides the clinical foundation that sets Training 999’s first aid training apart from other providers.

With many years working on frontline NHS Emergency Ambulances, I understand the critical importance of immediate, effective first aid response – knowledge I now share through our comprehensive workplace first aid courses.

Specialist Expertise in Pre-Hospital Care

My specialist knowledge and passion lies in pre-hospital education and patient moving and handling. I particularly enjoy teaching pre-hospital patient handling techniques, skills that are invaluable for first aid situations in workplace environments.

As a former NHS Subject Matter Expert, I served as clinical lead for moving and handling across a large NHS trust. My responsibilities included delivering clinical patient handling training for acute trusts, community trusts, and mental health trusts – experience that directly benefits our Training 999 clients across East Anglia.

Current NHS Role & Training 999

I currently work in NHS admission avoidance as a practicing Paramedic, alongside owning and running Training 999 Ltd. This dual role ensures our first aid training remains current with latest NHS protocols and real emergency scenarios, providing unparalleled value for businesses seeking professional first aid training.

Why Choose Training 999’s NHS Paramedic-Led Training

When you book first aid training with Training 999, you’re learning from active NHS professionals who deal with emergencies daily. Our Ofqual regulated first aid courses combine academic knowledge with practical experience gained from real-life emergency situations across East Anglia.

Personal Interests

In my free time, I enjoy swimming, paddleboarding, and taking long holidays – activities that keep me refreshed and ready to deliver the highest standard of first aid training to businesses across Suffolk, Norfolk, Cambridgeshire and Essex.
