What are  the First Aid Champion Awards?

Organised by St John Ambulance Victoria, the awards provides a unique opportunity for Victorians to honour those who have made a real impact to people’s lives, whether as unsung heroes, colleagues, classmates, friends or family members.

In a mission to thank and acknowledge Victorians who have displayed goodwill and courage by providing emergency First Aid, we hope to inspire others throughout the community to mirror these acts of heroism in times of need

The Grand Prize!

This year, more than ever, it's important to honour those who have helped someone with First Aid during an emergency situation. The overall winner of the 2022 awards will receive a St John Ambulance Defibrillator to gift to a community group of their choice - it could be a school, a charity, local sporting club or anywhere the overall winner thinks the life saving defibrillator can most benefit the community.
