ST John Ambulance is asking people in Oxfordshire who have saved someone’s life using first aid to come forward with their story for the charity’s Everyday Heroes awards.

The first aid charity is to host the seventh annual celebrations to highlight the impact of first aid in communities.

Chief executive, Martin Houghton-Brown, said: “Every day, St John Ambulance is saving lives and supporting communities, which is why the Everyday Heroes awards celebrate those that step forward and make a difference when it matters most.

“Half a million people learn first aid through St John Ambulance each year and we want to recognise the courage of those who put what they learned into practice."

The closing date for nominations is June 10.

The awards ceremony will be held at the Hilton London Bankside hotel on Monday September 24.
