🚨 19 Local Heroes On Call This Morning! 🚨
From Boroughbridge to Richmond and The Dales to the Coast, 19 Volunteer Community First Responders are logged on and ready to help — ordinary people like YOU, at home or work, with a phone by their side… just in case someone nearby dials 999.

💛 Already today, 3 responders have stepped up to support someone in their community.
Could you be number 20?

👥 You stay at home, go to work, live your life — but for just 20 hours a month, you’re “on call.”
If the phone rings, you respond. You help. You make a difference.
Then you carry on with your day.

📲 Join the team. Be the difference.
Your community needs you.

There are many ways to employment with Yorkshire Ambulance Service NHS Trust

One is Volunteer to Career. Students from the The King's Trust recently spend some time with us to gain a deeper understanding of the ambulance service and its volunteering and employment opportunities.

Students from previous courses have already chosen to volunteer with us as Community First Responders.

Some of those have then been successful in gaining employment with us
