We even had a go at pulling a life raft

Being a St John cadet can involve many things, who knew that ferry captain was amongst those things.
Many thanks to @RedFunnelFerry for looking after our team of cadets during the recent crossing. They enjoyed the tour of the bridge and taking the controls immensely.
Our team are out in force today at @RydeCarnival (childrens) and @IOWSteamRailway steam fair keeping everyone safe. The rain promises to ease later so fingers crossed
Massive thank you to our team of volunteers who covered multiple events this weekend with the Royal Isle of Wight County Show and Wightlink-WightMountain Time Trial Series.

Managing Director of Iceland, @icelandrichard, will be featuring on the show talking about how our volunteers saved his life after collapsing with heatstroke at the London Marathon.
Today we have 1 Emergency responder and 1 First aider at the London Marathon, along with our new @stjohnambulance Community Support Vehicle, at horseguards parade and the puddle dock respectively. Good luck Kean and Rob #isleofwight#volunteering#mysjaday
We are proud of our drivers at our @SouthernVectis business on the Isle of Wight, who recently received great recognition for their efforts ensuring passengers could continue to rely on their bus services despite road closures, floods and diversions.
Where roads were closed and trains affected by strikes, we continued to transport passengers to and from their destinations. The island has seen devastating landslides and many road closures due to unprecedented flooding across the network.
At Go-Ahead, we’re committed to keeping the communities we serve moving, and this is an example of how we continue to provide reliable, punctual and consistent bus services despite the challenges – it’s something we are incredibly proud of!
Our drivers on the Isle of Wight are receiving recognition from customers on their professionalism and they deserve all the praise for their hard work and dedication!
We are out this Easter weekend at Asda in Newport and at the Police Community day in lake. Pop along and say hello to our amazing team of @stjohnambulance#volunteers and learn some life saving skills. Our #bertieBadger mascot will also be out at the events #isleofwight#mysjaday
