First aid group marks centenary with prizes
THE Maidstone unit of St John Ambulance celebrated a centenary of life-saving first aid and service to the community at The Friars,Ayles- ford. Past and present volunteers joined
local dignitaries at a service of thanksgiving and rededication to celebrate the unit’s 100-year history. There was also a display of mod-
ern life-saving equipment, including a current SJA ambulance and defib- rillator, alongside historic items, such as a replica 1920s Sympathy ambulance and first aid kits. The Maidstone Unit was first formed in April 1915 during World War I. At its peak, there were about 100
male volunteers who joined as part of the Voluntary Aid Detachment, helping to treat and transport wounded soldiers as well as acting as the ambulance service for the local population. Afemale nursing divisionwas cre-
ated in January 1916 and both male and female volunteers went to France as ambulance drivers, with themenalso acting as stretcher bear-
ers and the women as nurses. In the early 1930s, St John received
the backing of the Maidstone com- munity, with businesses pitching in to fund a new building in Church Street, which cost £1,500 to build. The land was bought by the lo- cally-based Day family for this pur- pose and the grandson, John Day, who lives in Berkshire, attended the service. Other notable guests included The Lord-Lieutenant of Kent, Viscount De L’Isle MBE; the High Sheriff of Kent,William Alexander; Mayor of Maidstone, Cllr Daniel Moriarty and former MaidstoneMPAnneWidde- combe.
