We’re looking for individuals who can attend community family fun days, or look after information stands and spread the word and represent St John Ambulance in their local community.
You’ll contact your local community centres, libraries, parish halls and other places where you can set up an information table and talk to members of the public about St John Ambulance and ways they can get involved and support through fundraising.
Or, you can represent St John Ambulance by hosting a St John Ambulance fundraising stand. You’ll contact craft and Christmas fairs, shopping centres, markets and ask if you can have a table/stand. At Christmas, why not ask if you can have a Christmas wrapping station at your local shopping centre? We’ll provide you with guidance on quick and fun games you can play at your stand to draw in the crowds.
