Community Engagement Facilitator

St Andrew’s First Aid is Scotland’s dedicated first aid charity and leading first aid training provider. We believe no one should suffer or die because they needed first aid and didn’t get it.

Our mission is to raise awareness of the importance of first aid skills through first aid event cover, first aid training courses and first aid education within schools and communities across Scotland.

Being a Community Facilitator is all about delivering a variety of lifesaving first aid skills in community engagement workshops and projects, within local communities, and primary and secondary schools. A lot of these projects involve talking about and demonstrating the basics of first aid to community groups that can include children, young people, and vulnerable adults.


The role is all about promoting first aid awareness and helping to achieve our mission to create a nation of lifesavers.


We are particularly interested in volunteers that are available during the day on weekdays. All travel costs are reimbursed and all required first aid training will be provided.
