Safe+Sound was founded in 1999 by Gill McCulloch in Coquitlam, BC, as a solo operation focused on Red Cross first aid and CPR training. As demand grew, her husband, an electronics engineer, joined the team, transforming Safe+Sound into a family-run business. Together, they have built a reputable safety training organization, well-regarded locally for their dedication to safety education and community support.
Training Specialization and Client Reach
Safe+Sound offers a range of specialized training programs in first aid, CPR, mental health, and soft skills. While in-person courses are popular among local clients in the Tri-Cities and Greater Vancouver area, Safe+Sound is working towards a fully online model to reach a nationwide audience. This shift aligns with their goal of achieving greater work-life flexibility and expanding their impact beyond BC.
Their courses meet the high standards set by WorkSafe BC and are accessible across Canada through online offerings.
