St John Ambulance is the UK’s leading first aid charity, and any surplus profits from its workplace training courses directly fund its charitable activities.

John Cavanagh Director of Workplace and Community Training for St John Ambulance said: “The money we make from our workplace training courses has always gone towards funding St John Ambulance’s charitable initiatives, such as teaching first aid in schools or community training courses for hard to reach groups.

“Now, for the first time, businesses and organisations have the opportunity to support a local school of their choice with free first aid training for a class of students, and it won’t cost the school a penny. It’s a great way of passing on the baton of first aid training to the next generation, as we believe you are never too young to learn life saving skills.”
