About First Aid

At St John, we're about
Saving lives through First Aid

We aim for at least one person educated,
equipped & prepared to provide First Aid
in every home, workplace & public gathering.

St John Ambulance Australia (Vic) Inc. is a charity that has been providing services to Victorians for more than 128 years. Our mission is to increase the level of life–saving First Aid skills throughout the community, and save lives throughout the State.

We do this in three key ways; through volunteers providing First Aid services at events and emergencies, by training and equipping individuals to provide First Aid in their homes and workplaces, and through a range of targeted community programs designed to increase community resilience.

At St John Victoria we conduct our activities in a business–like manner that is guided by our purpose, values and contemporary governance principles, however we are completely self–funded. This means that our volunteer and community activities are funded by proceeds from our business activities including First Aid training and kit sales, or as a result of generous donations and support from individuals, organisations or trusts and foundations.

By supporting St John you are supporting your own community – you are supporting life.
