First Aid Training

The Order of St John originated from the need to care for the sick and this has remained at the heart of the organisation for over a century. The modern Order in particular was established to train and deliver First Aid to communities who were working in horrendous conditions during the Industrial Revolution.

While the philosophy of St John’s work remains the same, its scale and diversity has grown dramatically over the years and St John organisations now offer a huge number of First Aid, safety and health training courses. Some of these are aimed for the workplace and others to the general public for home and leisure time. The list below highlights just a few of the courses which St John offers worldwide.
