Stories from our lifesavers
“One day, one of the children that I have taught will be able to save a life.”
As a charity, St John Ambulance relies on your support to empower children and young people to become lifesavers. Your donation helps us give them the skills that will one day save a life.
Your next generation of local lifesavers is ready to step up. Will you help us give them the tools to be extraordinary?
Why we believe learning first aid is invaluable for young people.
A life-changing experience
Our young people have the power to make a big difference.
By providing them with first aid training, we're helping them realise their potential and raise their confidence, so they're ready to tackle any emergency that comes their way.
A lifesaving skill
Our young volunteers are armed with the skills to stay calm, think clearly and act quickly in a crisis. Building this toolkit can take years to perfect. Help us start them early.
A stronger community for the future
We dare envision a future where everybody is comfortable and competent in first aid. Only by making all of us lifesavers, can we guarantee the safety and good health of our entire community.
SPECIALISED TRAINING FOR YOUNG PEOPLE
Help us deliver more first aid training for our Badgers (aged 7-10), Cadets (aged 11-18) and NHS Cadets (aged 14-18) so they can respond to an emergency, if it happens.
SPONSOR MORE YOUTH TEAM VOLUNTEERS
Behind every brave cadet, there’s an inspiring Youth Leader cheering them on. With your help, we can prepare even more volunteers to teach and mentor our young lifesavers.
THE TOOLS THEY NEED TO TACKLE ANY EMERGENCY
Your donation will help us source the equipment and kits needed to provide first aid training for our youngest members.
By setting up a regular donation, you’ll help us be there when it matters most. As a thank you, you’ll receive quarterly emails packed with lifesaving resources.
Emergencies can strike anywhere, anytime. For every young person we inspire, it’s another potential life saved in our community.
We are the charity that steps forward in the moments that matter, to save lives and keep communities safe. All our charitable work is entirely funded by donations, and we are a market leader in the provision of workplace training, first aid supplies and event and ambulance services.
