St John Ambulance Cymru
Our vision for people to get the first aid they need anytime, anywhere In a crisis, it's vital that first aid is delivered with confidence. As Wales' leading first aid charity, treating thousands of people each year, we have a wealth of first-hand experience in dealing with emergencies. We teach young people in schools and through our youth programmes. We teach employees for their workplace, and we teach people in the community. Some become St John Ambulance Cymru volunteers, providing first aid at events, acting as first responders to NHS emergency calls in the community, or supporting their local ambulance service. As the nation’s leading first aid charity, we teach more people first aid than any other organisation; even so, 80% of people don't even have basic first aid knowledge.
