Members of St John Ambulance will join other uniformed and civilian services taking part in Remembrance parades across the country tomorrow, including volunteers and youth members from Salisbury & South Wiltshire.

St John also provides medical cover for many of these events (including Salisbury!) to look after those who fall ill or injure themselves. Each year we see a myriad of fainters, so here are our top tips for staying upright during the parade…

This evening, we were really pleased to welcome Robert and Caroline from SERV Wessex - The Blood Runners to give our volunteers a talk about the vital work they do providing transport for blood products and other medical services across the region.

Thank you so much for giving up your Monday evening, it was super interesting to hear about all the amazing work your volunteers do!

Last Monday we held our annual Youth Presentation Evening for our Badgers and Cadets. The event showcased the hard work and dedication shown by all of our young people, and we are so proud of all they achieved. This included two special awards for dedication, named after retired volunteers - the Glynn Reeve Award for Cadets and the new Jenny Williams Award for Badgers who both tirelessly supported the running of youth programmes in our area.

Thank you to all of the adult volunteers and dignitaries who came to show their support, and of course all of the parents who show their commitment by supporting their young people to attend each week!

Also a very special thank you to our VIB (very important badger) Bertie for joining us for some fab photo opportunities with the Badgers as seen below 🐾

From Sunday to Wednesday, a team of volunteers from Salisbury and further afield are supporting the Salisbury Charter Fair in the Market Square. We are proud to have supported this event on behalf of Salisbury City Council for many years and are pleased to be back. 🎠🎡🎪

This year is particularly soggy so please be careful whilst walking around the site as it is very slippery! 🌧️ Stay safe, but be confident in the knowledge our teams are here if you need us.

This weekend 2 of our new Youth Leaders have undertaken their Youth Leader Fundamentals and Principles courses.

Would you know what to do if someone collapsed in front of you? Or what if your child started choking on their food at the dinner table?

This weekend, 5 of our volunteers took to Salisbury Market Square to share the importance of basic first aid knowledge, teaching people vital life-saving skills such as CPR and how to help someone who is choking, as part of our campaign.

We spoke to dozens of people, played hook-a-duck and sold some great merch, raising approximately £100 for the Network, which in-turn helps us to reach even more of the South Wiltshire communities providing high-quality, free first aid training.

Would you like us to visit your village or community group to provide FREE basic first aid training? Send us a message to find out more!

Thank you to Salisbury City Council for letting us takeover part of the Guildhall Square once again!
