The Voluntary Aid Societies - St John Ambulance, St Andrew's Ambulance, and the British Red Cross - are the UK's premier first aid trainers. They deliver hundreds of first aid courses every year and their volunteers provide first aid cover at many public events. This revised edition is the result of a unique collaboration between the three organizations.
