Our Difference:
At St. John Ambulance, we focus all of our efforts to empower our communities to save lives at work, home and play. Through our training and products, our impactful team and history, and our dedicated community charitable services, St. John Ambulance is the safety partner for every resident in British Columbia and the Yukon.
What We Do:
Building on a 900-year tradition, St. John Ambulance partners with individuals and organizations to provide first aid and CPR training and products. As a self-funded charity, training and product proceeds support our volunteer-based community care programs.
In British Columbia and Yukon, we serve our communities through a network of 19 branches and 100+ staff members, where we train over 65,000 students annually through our first aid classes. Our volunteers also provide first aid in their communities to keep people safe at public events, and also improve quality of life through community care programs that help seniors, and provide leadership opportunities for our youth. We are consistently campaigning to raise public awareness of first aid and CPR and strive to have every British Columbian and Yukonian equipped with the skills to care for their own community.
