The nation’s leading first aid charity. Every year, more than 400,000 people learn how to save a life through our training programmes. Our volunteers provide first aid in their communities and thanks to them fewer lives will be lost needlessly. Raise money. Help save lives. Be the difference.

Story

St John Ambulance is a volunteer-powered, charitable organisation dedicated to first aid education and response. We train people in first aid to make their communities more resilient, provide medical support at public events and support the NHS. We also deliver engaging youth programmes throughout England.

The donations which you make will make a difference and could go towards the following:

£22 helps us deliver essential emergency kits — including foil blankets — to those in urgent need suffering from shock or hypothermia to retain vital body heat.

£35 could go towards essential ECG monitor training, so that more of our volunteers can check patients for signs of cardiac arrest or heart arrhythmias. 

£45 could help to train more volunteers, helping to grow our life-saving Emergency Response Crew just in time for a busy summer.
