Re: St John Ambulance SocietyI've been a member for 2 and a half years now. I am currently an AFA but with the training requirements for different first aid levels about to change next year, I could soon go down and be an FA.

Re: St John Ambulance SocietyWow nice 7 years. St John Ambulance veteran then. Will you be getting the new uniform and what uniform do you currently wear?(Original post by Witty Username)
Hi! I've been a member for nearly 7 years now (oh dear...) although I appear to be taking a temporary hiatus from it. Currently AFA with Med Gases, and not sure if I'm going to stick with the organisation.

Re: St John Ambulance SocietyWow you had to do an interview I just turned up in this little hall in the middle of no where and my soon to be new friend and division leader was eating a subway on the stage as we got to know each other.(Original post by rebeccapeake)
I've literally got my first induction this Sunday after monthsssss of applying/interviewing/waiting! and then every wednesday evening from then on excited to find out what stuff my division does!
Apparently now you cannot even attend meetings without having a CRB check. -

Re: St John Ambulance SocietyI don't really know my division doesn't have any cadets lol.(Original post by Natalie21)

I'm still wearing my old uniform and I sent my waist etc size off ages ago.
If previous SJA standards are anything to go by we could be waiting another 10 years. In all seriousness though I expect we'll be getting the new uniform next year sometime.
