ABOUT US
ABOUT
US
We are both a first aid society and a St John Ambulance student volunteering unit. We run weekly first aid sessions, covering a variety of first aid skills, as well as regular socials, fundraising, and teaching in the local community. We welcome all levels of ability especially those who have never done first aid before!
EXCELLENCE AND PROFESSIONALISM
​
We are a society at the University of Birmingham, who meet weekly to learn and practice First Aid skills. You can be just a member of the First Aid Society, who learn these skills, or become a member of our Unit (University of Birmingham Unit).
Our members who are part of the Unit regularly volunteer at both local and national events, such as;
-
Wimbledon
-
Birmingham Pride
-
Aston Villa Football Ground
-
Safespace at the Arcadian
-
London Marathon
All our unit members are students or recent graduates
First Aid Society
If you become a student volunteer with us, you’ll get training in skills that you wouldn’t usually get the chance to learn. From dealing with fractures and burns to learning how to look after someone who’s unresponsive, your training will give you the confidence to do the right thing when it really counts.
