Volunteers vital

I write in acknowledgement of all St John volunteers and join with them to celebrate International Volunteers Day (December 5). Our dedicated St John volunteers give so much time on our behalf in caring for their local communities.

Without them St John would not be able to deliver the level of vital emergency ambulance services and valued community programmes we currently provide. Our volunteers frequently go above and beyond the call of duty. I also give thanks to the families and friends of our volunteers who help and support in the background enabling our volunteers to contribute as they do.

We wish your readers, your publication and all our members the very best for Christmas and thank you for your continued support of St John.
