As thousands of Victorians hit the road over the Christmas and New Year period, St John Ambulance Victoria is urging drivers, particularly young and learner drivers, to prioritise safety, preparedness and basic first aid knowledge.

St John Ambulance Victoria is proud to announce the winners of the Shocktober 2025 Competition, with Andrews Centre (Endeavour Hills) and Belgrave South Primary School each receiving a publicly accessible Automated External Defibrillator (AED) and outdoor cabinet to help protect their communities.
