How we spend your donations

St John Ambulance relies on donations to help us save lives and make the difference in your local communities and schools.

Your donations help us equip more people with first aid skills, so that they can be the difference between lives lost and lives saved.

Below is an example of what we spend your donations on:

£40 Could help pay for an hour of advanced first aid training for one of our life saving volunteers.
£50 Could equip one of our volunteers with a first aid response kit.
£60 Could pay for a Young first aider pack; an interactive training tool for young people, aged seven to 16 in schools and youth organisations.
£80 Could help towards keeping an ambulance on the road to help people in need
£120 Could help us buy a Little Annie, or a Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) training model, which are crucial for our training.
£2,500 Could pay for a 'Heartstart' AED machine which is vital to the resuscitation process following a heart attack.
£57,000 Could buy and equip an ambulance used by St John Ambulance at many events and duties around the county.
