#16 – The Order of St John
The Order of St John, or as we more commonly refer to it St John Ambulance, looked to donors for a contribution of £20,000 in order to supply ultra mobile pop up first aid treatment posts wherever they may be needed. Cheshire Freemasons listened to the good works that the St John team do across the UK and in Cheshire, and made the decision to provide the full £20,000 which allowed the organisation to immediately commission the posts in order to provide support for emergencies and events. As an NHS category 1 responder organisation the grant ensures that when called upon, their services will be ready to support the NHS as well as all of us, at short notice.
John Clough, County President for St John Ambulance thanks Cheshire Freemasons for their substantial donation of £20,000 in order to help support their teams support us at emergencies and events across Cheshire and the UK.
