Join us in promoting health awareness and skills through engaging first aid competitions for high school students. Our events are designed to inspire teamwork, critical thinking, and life-saving skills.
At SASFAE, we organise innovative first aid competitions that foster learning and excitement among high school students. Our mission is to equip the next generation with essential first aid training, while providing a platform for friendly competition. Whether in simulated emergencies or training sessions, we aim to build confidence and capability in future lifesavers. The first competition we ran was in 1991 and have been managing them ever since.
