How we support our volunteers
We'll provide you with all the training and guidance you need to get started as a St John Ambulance volunteer. From basic first aid to leading your own Cadet group, our courses are designed for all skill levels so that every volunteer is ready to do their role with confidence.
The type of training you’ll do will depend on your role. Most of our training includes online learning as well as in-person courses.
We’ll be there every step of the way
We understand that starting something new can be daunting. That’s why we’re committed to supporting you while you get familiar with your new role. From your first day, you’ll have your own dedicated induction buddy as well as ongoing support from fellow volunteers. You’ll have the opportunity to connect with your peers, share experiences, and build friendships.
Whether you’re attending your first event or delivering your first youth session, you’ll never be alone. We’re here to ensure you feel at home from day one.
Development opportunities
Once you’re settled into your new role, there are lots of opportunities to progress with St John Ambulance, if that’s something that you’d like to do.
You might want to take on a new challenge by stepping up into a leadership role or maybe you just want to expand your skill set. We offer courses and learning opportunities for all our volunteers.
