Above and beyond
I write in acknowledgement of all St John volunteers, and join with them to celebrate International Volunteer Day (December 5).
Our dedicated St John volunteers give so much time on our behalf in caring for their local communities. Without our volunteers St John would not be able to deliver the level of vital emergency ambulance services and valued community programmes that 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.
With the Christmas break fast approaching, we ask for your readers, your publication and all our members to take care on the roads, and look after themselves and their loved ones this holiday season.
