International Paramedics Day - 8th July 2015

International Paramedics Day will be held on 8th July 2025 to highlight the power of teamwork and collaboration among paramedics and first responders worldwide!
 

Paramedicine is a rapidly growing profession, with paramedics working across a wide range of roles and settings. This year, we celebrate the incredible ways paramedics come together to support each other and their communities, overcoming challenges to deliver the best possible care.
 

Launched in 2022, International Paramedics Day takes place on the 8th of July each year, marking the anniversary of the birth of Dominique-Jean Larrey, often referred to as the father of modern-day ambulance services.
 

This year, our theme is "Unity & Community" - because no paramedic works alone.

International Paramedics Day has been created, organised and run by the College of Paramedics in the UK, with support from professional paramedics' organisations from around the world.

INTERNATIONAL FIRE FIGHTERS DAY

Firefighters dedicate their lives to the protection of life and property. Sometimes that dedication is in the form of countless hours volunteered over many years, in others it is many selfless years working in the industry. In all cases it risks the ultimate sacrifice of a firefighter’s life.

International Firefighters’ Day (IFFD) is a time where the world’s community can recognise and honour the sacrifices that firefighters make to ensure that their communities and environment are as safe as possible. It is also a day in which current and past firefighters can be thanked for their contributions. CLICK
