St John Ambulance has been providing voluntary First Aid Services to the Victorian Community since 1883. As a primarily self funded, not for profit organisation, we rely on funds generated through the sales of First Aid Training, Kit sales and philanthropic support.

St John Volunteers attend in excess of 6,000 events, treat over 17,000 casualties and volunteer 275,000 hours a year. Our Volunteers are present at local and major events across Victoria, including AFL games, Formula 1 Grand prix and the Australian Open. Almost 3,000 Volunteers belong to one of our 71 Divisions state-wide.

As an emergency support agency under the Victorian Emergency Management Act, St John Volunteers are called on to provide First Aid in times of crisis such as bushfires, floods and other mass-casualty disasters.

St John Ambulance products and services include:

• First Aid Training
• First Aid Kits
• Kit Servicing
• First Aid Volunteers at Public Events
•  Community Care Volunteers supporting people in need

The youngest volunteers join the Juniors at age 8 and learn basic First Aid. Cadets are aged between 11-18. They develop extensive First Aid skills and attend public events to perform First Aid with adult supervision. Adult First Aid volunteers form the largest group of St John volunteers. They enjoy an excellent reputation as First Aid professionals and deliver a first class service.
