Fond Farewell For Whitby St John's Station

St Johns Ambulance is saying goodbye to it's base in Whitby on Monday.

There's a meeting there one last time- from 7-9pm.

James Hammond is from the organisation's North East Unit.

He says everyone's welcome at St Hilda's Gardens for one more time:

"Unfortunately, we're actually paying goodbye to our Whitby building. St. John isn't leaving Whitby.

"We're just changing locations. Been in that building for 50 plus years, I believe.

"So it's like a goodbye to Whitby building, but also welcoming anybody that would like to come. Again, ask questions, sit down and have a, a cup of coffee and just get to know us."

James says it's also an opportunity who wants to get involved with the organisation:

" The whole leadership team will be there. As well as other volunteers, someone's got an interest in joining the ambulance service, for example.

"It's a very good stepping stone to help them hopefully feed and get to the ambulance service. Or if they just want to help out and not necessarily volunteer medically, they can come to events and help the medical teams out."
