First-aid kit test

Date: August 2007

The cheapest kit on test was correctly coloured in green, but didn’t have a white cross. Of the limited contents, the high spots included the vinyl gloves, half-dozen wipes and four small non-adherent pads. But the tape was rather weak, as were the scissors, and only basic instructions were on offer. Fine for minor cuts and bruises, but not for the long-distance traveller.
