The Duke of Gloucester has helped to mark 40 years the St John Fellowship at a National Memorial Arboretum ceremony.

More than 270 people were also in attendance beside the Order of St John Memorial.

The Duke carried out a reading and planted a tree as part of the event.

Many of the members of the fellowship are former first aid volunteers with St John Ambulance.

The Reverend John Davis said:

> “The service at the Order of St John memorial at the National Memorial Arboretum commemorated 40 years since the St John Fellowship was founded on St John Day 1983.  
>  
> “The members of St John Fellowship have given over 40,000 years of service – and look forward to continuing to serve in the future.”  
>  
> The Reverend John Davis
