Cycle Responder Team Member (West Midlands)

About the Cycle Responder role

St John Ambulance has operated Cycle Response Units for more than 15 years having invested significantly in state-of-the-art equipment and helping to establish public safety cycling across the UK emergency services. CRU has become a key response asset for St John Ambulance at major events (e.g. marathons, parades and significant national occasions) as well as smaller community-based events, often being the first resource on scene. Being part of a CRU is an exciting way to give back, and suited to someone who has the time, energy and passion to learn new skills whilst on ‘the job’.

You’ll get a huge sense of satisfaction and pride delivering an essential service. It’s great for you, great for your community and great for our nation. 

Getting started

Training will consist of a two-day course, with dates to be arranged.
