When building a first aid kit you first need to decide where the kit will be stored and what you will be using it for. For example the contents of a first aid kit for you house will be different than a kit you use for hiking in the mountains. Whilst in both environments it is possible to suffer cuts, bruises and bangs, in a home incidences of poisoning and choking are more common, whereas while hiking in the mountains broken bones, and serious falls are much more likely. Therefore when building or buying our first aid kit we should be aware of the context we will be using it in and adjust the contents accordingly.

On the next few pages we have listed some of the best first aid kits available to buy online.
