50 years of service… and still going strong⚡

At our 2026 Volunteer Awards, Anne reflected on a lifetime dedicated to helping others. From her very first cadet shift to today, her commitment to supporting the community hasn’t changed - and she’s not done yet 💚

He crossed the finish line… and then his heart stopped.

Last year at the Melbourne Marathon, 29-year-old Lewis went into cardiac arrest just moments after completing his race.

In the chaos, St John Ambulance Victoria volunteers didn’t hesitate; they stepped in, worked together as a team, and saved his life with CPR and defibrillation.

Seven months later, they met again for the first time.

Hugs. Tears. Gratitude.

“I wouldn’t be here without them,” Lewis said. “They gave me a second chance.”

This First Responder Day, we recognise the ordinary people who choose to do something extraordinary, showing up when it matters most.

To all our First Responders, near and far, happy First Responder Day! You make all the difference!

At St John, we never stop learning 💛

Our NEPT (Non-Emergency Patient Transport) teams recently completed another round of Skills Maintenance and reaccreditation, part of our ongoing commitment to safe, high-quality patient care.

From keeping up with the latest clinical practices to meeting strict Health Vic - Department of Health Regulations requirements, these sessions help ensure our people are confident, capable and ready for every patient they support.

While the requirement is 8 hours of training each year, our Patient Transport Officers go above and beyond, completing 20+ hours annually 🙌

Because delivering the best care starts with investing in our people.

Recently, St John Ambulance Victoria volunteers from Maroondah and Ranges divisions partnered with Wandin CFA to deliver immersive, scenario-based training designed to replicate real-life rescue environments.

From multi-casualty motor vehicle collisions to structural collapse and firefighter down scenarios, volunteers played a critical role in bringing realism, clinical accuracy and complexity to every exercise.

Through detailed planning, casualty simulation, and on-the-ground clinical guidance, our volunteers helped CFA crews practise vital, time-critical interventions, including haemorrhage control, CPR, and coordinated trauma response, all under pressure.

This type of training strengthens inter-agency collaboration and ensures that when real emergencies happen, responders are equipped with the skills, confidence and teamwork needed to save lives.

We are proud of our volunteers who continue to deliver high-quality training that supports our emergency service partners and strengthens community safety across Victoria.
