Thank you for running in when others run out
Someone was there when you needed them most
Help us recognise the everyday Australian heroes who keep our communities safe. If a first responder has made a difference in your life, take a moment to say thanks — it only takes a minute, but the impact can last a lifetime. Together, let’s build a culture of appreciation and make saying thank you a habit.
If a NSW Ambulance crew helped you or someone you love, you can send them a personal thank you here.
You don’t need to know their names — just tell us what happened.
We’re beginning right here in Sydney, NSW

A platform to show gratitude to NSW’s
first responders
Have you ever been helped by a paramedic, police officer,
or firefighter? These everyday heroes dedicate their lives to keeping us safe, often without hearing the thanks they deserve.
Now, you can share your gratitude and let them know how much their service means to you. A simple “thank you” can boost their wellbeing, strengthen our community, and inspire others to appreciate their sacrifices.
Meet some of those in the community who said thank you!
Why say thank you?
Gratitude Strengthens Communities
Saying thanks builds connection between first responders and the people they serve. It improves mental wellbeing for both the thanker and the thanked. Studies show gratitude increases resilience, motivation, and happiness.
OBK Supports First Responders
We work closely with NSW Ambulance, NSW Police, and NSW Fire & Rescue, providing meals and team-building activities. This platform is another way we give back to those who give so much.
First Responders Deserve Recognition
They risk their lives daily to protect ours. They often miss family moments to keep us safe. A small act of gratitude can make a big difference in their day.
