We’re excited to announce we have been shortlisted as a finalist for this year’s Welsh Charity Awards - organised by Wales Council for Voluntary Action (WCVA).

The awards recognise and celebrate the fantastic contribution charities, community groups, not-for-profits and volunteers make to Wales. 

This year, we’ve been shortlisted as part of the ‘Organisation of the Year’ category alongside some of Wales’ biggest names at this year's Welsh Charity Awards.

Judged by a panel of experts, 30 finalists were whttled down from 180 nominations and were assessed against strict criteria with organisations having to demonstrate how they have achieved their objectives through innovation and highlight the positive impact they have had on their service users, changing lives for the better.  

A full list of judges can be found here.

“We’re absolutely delighted to be shortlisted for this very special award.

Our volunteers and colleagues work extremely hard towards helping us achieve our goal of a first aider in every home in Wales, often going above and beyond what is expected to help others in their communities.

The bar has been set extremely high and we’re honoured to have been selected amongst some of Wales’ most respected causes,” 

St John Cymru Acting Chief Executive Officer, Helen Smith

Awards are being presented to winners and runners up at a glittering ceremony taking place November 15 at the National Museum, Cardiff.
