Volunteer with us
Be part of it
Are you looking for something a bit different
to do in your free time? Do you want to learn a new
skill? Do you want to give something back
to your local community? Then why
not join our enthusiastic and
vibrant team of volunteers?
Our volunteers come from all walks of life,
some are doctors, nurses, and paramedics, and have been working in
a health related enviroment for years. For others, joining St
John Ambulance is their first contact with a
medical organisation.
Progression
Whatever your experience you can join and progress into whatever
area you are interested in, at a speed that is right for
you. Furthermore you don't have to do first aid, or wear a
uniform if you don't want to, and as not all roles require
direct patient contact, we can even find a role for people
who are perhaps a bit squemish!
Youth
Nationally we have over 40,000 volunteers and over
half are under 25,
this is also true for Leicestershire and Rutland. We are very
youth focused, and believe in a society where
every young person has the opportunity to make a real
difference in their community, to speak
out on what matters to them and to help
others in need of support and development.
If you think you have what it takes to help us and be one of our
youth leaders why not contact us for more
information?
Young people
Perhaps you are a young person aged 5 -17, and looking for a
hobby where you get to do something a bit
different, are you applying for jobs or university
and looking to make your CV shine? Why not
find your local
unit, and join
us. Not only will you get to learn some new
skills as part of a fun and
exciting programme, but you'll get to go to events for
free, now how many hobbies offer that?
