The charity says a lot of privately-owned first aid companies have sprung up to undercut the price of first aid courses, which is its primary income stream.

New CEO Barry Marsden says one way to help turn things around is to help people with their mental health;
'In the United Kingdom, St John Ambulance has been running some excellent courses about how to recognise and how to deal with mental health issues. What we're wanting to do is introduce that here in Jersey and work alongside other charities that already do so.'
