Recent research has shown that 150,000 die a year where first aid could have given them a chance to live. Just think of how many public events you attend during the course of any given year that are covered by the volunteers of the St John's Ambulance. St John Ambulance teaches people first aid - about 800,000 last year alone – so that they can be the difference between a life lost and a life saved. This helps to give you and all of us first aid cover in the work place, out and about socially and if you are the trained person at home where the individual requiring help may well be someone very close to you. What they teach and does save lives at home, at work and when we are enjoying ourselves at the village fete or amongst 40,000 people at a sporting event at the weekend.   The St John's also teach young people in <a href="https://remote.amiriconstruction.co.uk/owa/redir.aspx?C=09a953cff05e49639ede496af62c2a8c&amp;amp;URL=http%3a%2f%2fwww.sja.org.uk%2fsja%2ftraining-courses%2fschools.aspx">schools</a> and through activities for <a href="https://remote.amiriconstruction.co.uk/owa/redir.aspx?C=09a953cff05e49639ede496af62c2a8c&amp;amp;URL=http%3a%2f%2fwww.sja.org.uk%2fsja%2fyoung-people.aspx">young people</a>.       The St. John's teach people who become <a href="https://remote.amiriconstruction.co.uk/owa/redir.aspx?C=09a953cff05e49639ede496af62c2a8c&amp;amp;URL=http%3a%2f%2fwww.sja.org.uk%2fsja%2fvolunteer.aspx">volunteers</a>, who offer their skills and time to be the difference right in the heart of their community – at <a href="https://remote.amiriconstruction.co.uk/owa/redir.aspx?C=09a953cff05e49639ede496af62c2a8c&amp;amp;URL=http%3a%2f%2fwww.sja.org.uk%2fsja%2fwhat-we-do%2fevent-first-aid-cover.aspx">public events</a>, <a href="https://remote.amiriconstruction.co.uk/owa/redir.aspx?C=09a953cff05e49639ede496af62c2a8c&amp;amp;URL=http%3a%2f%2fwww.sja.org.uk%2fsja%2fwhat-we-do%2fcommunity-first-responders.aspx">first responders</a> or <a href="https://remote.amiriconstruction.co.uk/owa/redir.aspx?C=09a953cff05e49639ede496af62c2a8c&amp;amp;URL=http%3a%2f%2fwww.sja.org.uk%2fsja%2fwhat-we-do%2femergency-response.aspx">back up to local ambulance services</a>.   As a charity, they are committed to making sure more people can be the difference between a life lost and a life saved. To do that, we need your help. <h1 style="background: white; margin-right: 4.8pt; margin-bottom: 5pt; margin-left: 4.8pt;">Vision, mission and values</h1>   <h2 style="background: white; margin-right: 4.8pt; margin-bottom: 3pt; margin-left: 4.8pt;">Their vision is:</h2>   Everyone who needs it should receive first aid from those around them.
