If you are interested in becoming a St John Ambulance Community First Responder then email us or call us on 07903 215777.

You need to:

  • be aged 18 or older
  • hold a valid, full UK drivers license
  • be prepared to undertake an enhanced Criminal Records Bureau check
  • be prepared to take our CFR course.

You will be asked to attend a welcome evening and introduction to St John Ambulance. You will then be required to take our CFR course. Normally they run over a series of weekends, approximately two per year. They are four days in length and you will learn everything you need to know about responding on behalf of St John Ambulance. All successful CFRs spend a shift with an ambulance crew before going live.

We need your contact details and the postcode of the address you would like to respond from. We will then let you know whether we are recruiting Responders in your area.  We can also have a chat about responding, answer any questions you have and send you the relevant application forms.
