At Quinns Training Services, we’re proud to work closely with housing associations across Wales
At Quinns Training Services, we’re proud to work closely with housing associations across Wales to ensure their maintenance teams are fully trained, qualified, and prepared to carry out their roles safely and effectively.
Organisations like Wales & West Housing and Cambria Maintenance trust us to design, deliver, and manage their health and safety and training programmes – and we’re always looking to build new partnerships with housing associations who want the same level of support.
Some of the courses we proudly offer HAs we work with:
COSHH
Manual Handling
Needlesticks & Sharps
Working at Height
Lone Working
First Aid
We offer a wide range of courses and can tailor them to meet the specific needs of your housing association teams.

As a housing association, we would welcome regular meetings to discuss your health, safety, and training plans. From these discussions, we can help design your training programme, schedule dates, and ensure all delegates have the correct qualifications for the courses they need.
We handle all the logistics – including booking venues, arranging catering, and making the day as smooth and enjoyable as possible. Many of our housing association partners leave all the details in our hands, from tea, coffee, and biscuits to lunch, helping make the day extra special for delegates. When we say we go the extra mile for our delegates, we truly mean it.
Training can be delivered in a way that suits you:
- At your housing association venue
- At our Cardiff HQ training centre
- In another bookable location
- Or even remotely via Teams for certain courses
We tailor the delivery to your team’s needs while maintaining a fun, engaging, and practical approach.
Our partners love working with us because we offer repeat customer discounts, making training more affordable while ensuring standards remain high. Additionally, our dedicated account manager will:
- Monitor refresher requirements
- Track qualifications
- Ensure all training is booked and delivered on schedule
- Book catering, venues, trainers and submit qualifications
We aim to take the stress out of training administration so your teams can focus on learning and staying safe.

We also help housing associations run Safety Stand Down Days, giving your teams the time and space to reflect, refresh, and focus on safety. Whether you want us to work alongside your internal H&S team or deliver the whole day ourselves, we can design bespoke sessions that cover the topics most relevant to your staff. From logistics and catering to tailored content and interactive training, we ensure the day is engaging, practical, and leaves your teams confident and motivated.
