St John Ambulance Guernsey
St John Ambulance Guernsey, also known as St John Guernsey (STG) is a charitable voluntary first aid organisation and the division of St John Ambulance in Guernsey.[1] It provides workplace and community first aid sessions to over-16s, and helps provide the emergency services for the State of Guernsey, as well as providing all the ambulances in use.[1] The organisation offers associate member insurance to citizens who have qualifications in First Aid.[2] In 2020, due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Guernsey, the organisation was forced to make over 250 staff redundant, as it was losing £1.4 million per week when delivering essential supplies to islanders' homes.,[3][4] later in November 2020, the charity announced it would be offering around 30,000 volunteers to help carry out vaccinations.[5]
