Make a difference with St John Ambulance and become a lifesaver in your community. Gain new skills, support others, and be the hero your community needs!

At St John Ambulance, we aim to develop our volunteering offer and become an even more integral part of our communities through delivering community first aid and education.

We seek passionate individuals who care about their communities and want to make a difference by sharing first aid skills and knowledge. As a Community First Aider, you will deliver first aid at local events and educate the public to promote the importance of First Aid.

Volunteering as a Community First Aider offers a sense of satisfaction and pride in delivering essential services. It benefits you, your community, and the nation, requiring only a small time commitment.

We provide comprehensive induction and training for your role, along with a supportive environment. Details about volunteer roles are included in the role descriptions, and our volunteer charter outlines mutual expectations.
