Our Community First Aid Volunteers play a vital part in helping us deliver safe, compassionate, and community-focused first aid cover at events across Greater Manchester. You will work alongside experienced responders (FREC 3 and above), supporting them in caring for patients, ensuring events run smoothly, and contributing to our wider community engagement mission.
You don’t need any previous medical experience. We will provide full training, ongoing CPD, and the guidance you need to feel confident in your role. What matters most is your willingness to learn, your teamwork, and your commitment to helping your community stay safe.
