St John, singular. There is no 'S'. There is no full stop (after St) either, in case anyone's interested. :p

A lot of my friend's are members of St John. They really enjoy it and say it's really worth while doing! You should try and join :)

Hobbes 17-08-2012 08:48 PM

I know someone who volunteers with them and he really enjoys it. Go for it if you're interested :)

I used to be, for 3 years. My aunt and uncle are superintendents and got certificates for 50 years service recently. My niece & nephew are joining in September too. I really enjoyed it, it's great for meeting people & one of the most fun nights I ever had was on a trip away with them for competitions. You should go for it.

I am not a member, but it sounds like a lot of people on here are either a member or know someone who is a member..

You should really try and ring up cos i hear it can be really rewarding..

I found this on the Australian website and wondered if it's for iPhones worldwide.

I've just qualified as a trainer and assessor for London LINKs (which by the way is a tonne of paperwork, I think I killed a few trees). I'm also an ex-committee member, so feel free to ask me any questions (St John related, not first aid, I suck at that).

If you can travel into London for your meetings, the units there are usually bigger and have better training - as do all the major cities. They're usually 2 hours in the evening once a week.

Dying_Angel 22-08-2012 12:19 AM

Thanks for the replies

No i wouldnt be able to go to London for meetings. i have found a local one in my town :)
