Lancashire event cover
St John Ambulance is the UK leading first
aid training organisation and is also well known for the provision
of first aid at public events. But we have a lot more to offer,
including emergency ambulances and automatic external defibrillator
(AED) trained First Aiders.
Our service is provided by volunteers, supported by volunteer
healthcare professionals and paid staff. This does not mean a
second-class service. Our volunteers offer a highly skilled and
professional first aid, medical and ambulance service
What we can do for your event
First aid services
For small events, we offer a visible reassuring presence for the
public and our first-aiders, trained to HSE First aid at work, help you comply with your
statutory obligations.
For larger events, we offer a complete range of first-aiders,
advanced first-aiders (trained in the use of Automatic External
Defibrillators, medical gases and trauma equipment), emergency
transport attendants, paramedics, nurses and doctors.
We also have our own fleet of mobile first-aid units, air
shelters, quick erect tents, ambulances and support vehicles to
support the work of our volunteers.
Patient transport
Our ambulances provide patient transport
services throughout the North West. This includes seated transport
or stretcher for patients who cannot walk.
Accident and emergency ambulance support
To support a public event, or to fulfil the requirements of an
event licence, we can provide A and E ambulances. We currently have
five A and E ambulances across the county. They regularly
provide support to the North West Ambulance Service.
Specialist equipment
We also have two 4x4 ambulances for events where access is
difficult. This is completed by one 4x4 support vehicle, air
shelters, quick erect tents, which can be used either at a public
event or the site of a major incident in support of the statutory
emergency services.
