Story
St John Ambulance is a volunteer-led charity dedicated to empowering people with life-saving first aid skills. Its mission is to ensure that anyone, anywhere, can receive help in a health emergency — not only from professionals, but from confident members of their own community.
The organisation works to build safer, more resilient communities by delivering high-quality first aid training, supporting the NHS, providing medical cover at events, and running vital youth programmes that inspire the next generation of lifesavers.
Guided by its HEART values — Humanity, Excellence, Accountability, Responsiveness and Teamwork — St John Ambulance acts with compassion and professionalism in everything it does. Its volunteers and staff are committed to serving those in need without judgement, caring for people in crisis, and continually improving the ways in which lives are protected and saved.
Every donation helps St John Ambulance continue its essential work: training more people, supporting frontline healthcare, delivering ambulance services, and ensuring that communities across the country are prepared when emergencies happen.
