St John Ambulance SA Inc. Annual Report 2020-21

VISION, MISSION, VALUES

St John SA is a charity working to save lives through education, training and patient care at events. Every year thousands of South Australians benefit from the care of our volunteers – whether it be at countless events across the state or in times of State Emergency, St John SA volunteers are always there to help. Our services span all age groups with our young people being taught both first aid and transferrable life skills, and the older and socially isolated members of the community being provided with companionship and support through wellness and reablement-focussed programs.

OUR MISSION To ensure wellbeing of all South Australians is improved through St John SA’s delivery of innovative, client-centred and evidence-based health, community and educational products and services. All our work is underpinned by a professional network of volunteers and staff.

OUR MOTTO The international and national work of St John follows the mottos which we align ourselves to today: For the Faith and in the Service of Humanity. We are part of the international St John movement – The Order of St John is formally known as The Most Venerable Order of the Hospital of Saint John of Jerusalem, first constituted by Royal Charter in 1888.
