We’ve raised over £200,000 for St John Ambulance

St John Ambulance and Kinetik Wellbeing have a shared passion for empowering people to look after their health, from knowing how to tackle a first aid emergency to monitoring your blood pressure. Kinetik Wellbeing’s product range supports St John’s work through donations from each purchase, which enables St John to continue to meet the health needs of communities across the country.

During the pandemic, people in communities like yours have received over 1 million hours of care from St John people. That is more than a century’s worth of time simply during the pandemic. St John people were there in hospitals, on ambulances and in communities giving people the compassionate care they needed, whether for ongoing health concerns or care relating to COVID-19. An average of 200 St John volunteers were stepping forward every day to care.

The charity was asked to partner with the NHS to deliver the COVID vaccine programme from March 2021 and trained more than 30,000 volunteers to help the NHS vaccinate the nation. Some of their vaccination volunteers administered the vital jabs and many were reassuring and taking care of people before and after they received them; their green T-shirted volunteers were seen at vaccination centres from Newcastle to Newhaven.
