Currently we have over 150 adult volunteers based all around the island providing over 10,000 hours of service to the communities and we have trained thousands of people in first aid and other healthcare activities. We are an association of the international Order of St John, a major international charity which provides first aid, health care and support services in over 40 countries around the world. Together they make up the Order of St John, which is accredited to the United Nations. The Order’s charitable work is carried out by the St John Eye Hospital in Jerusalem and national St John organizations worldwide. The Order of St John itself is an Order of Chivalry of the British Crown. His Majesty the King, the Sovereign Head of the Order, honours individuals who have made outstanding contributions to the work of St John, by awarding membership, at different grades, in the Order. The Order is a Christian Order, founded on Christian principles and all we do is inspired by Christian ideals. However, we warmly welcome people of any faith or no faith, who are motivated to share in our mission. Our Services
