The stained glass in the crypt of the Priory Church was backlit earlier this year, and is now looking rather stunning. We are working hard #BehindTheScenes, in the hope that we will be able to welcome you back to see it in 2021.

8 years ago @SJAWMids hosted the annual service of remembrance & rededication for @StJohnEngland - the weekend was a celebration of the work of @stjohnambulance but in particular the work of our people in the West Midlands.

The Gift of Sight Fair is going online as it’s just not possible to run our normal Christmas Fair at Chelsea Town Hall. Instead we will be running an online fundraiser from 2-15 Nov. @StJohnEyeHosp needs our help more than ever. For more, find @GiftSightFair on Facebook

Today marks 6 years since I was enrolled into #Cadets and I get quite emotional when I reflect on my journey. The people of @stjohnambulance have become my second family and I can't imagine life without them. Thank you to everyone who has made this journey possible!

Replying to @AlastairBruce_
The merchants of Amalfi were great supporters of the forebears of the Order of St John, the Knights Hospitaller. So much so that the Knights adopted their eight pointed cross as their symbol of devoted Christian service. #ProFide #ProUtilitateHominum

So I am also honoured to announce that Her Majesty the Queen has sanctioned my admission to the Order of St John, @StJohnEngland . It feels like only yesterday I was a baby volunteer with @SJA_Students, planning cover for @UniofBath Fresher's week. Apparently it was 11 years!

The @gsyairdisplay is one of only a few taking place this year. Today St John volunteers were on duty on the seafront while a paramedic led emergency medical crew were on standby on the water as part of the safety arrangements for the event. @rafredarrows @RAFBBMF @gsyharbours
