...Or, looking at their website, it is a charity, so perhaps that makes it a
"social facility"?
Oh BTW, it is "St John Ambulance", not "St John's Ambulance" (I don't know why,
but it is...)

I'd be inclined to go for community centre, in this case. It isn't an
emergency ambulance station, which is what the
emergency=ambulance_station tag is for (and, in any case, is rapidly
becoming obsolete with the new distributed means of organising an
ambulance service), and it isn't a doctor or a clinic either. And the
main purpose of the building (as opposed to the yard) is for things like
first aid training (both for St John volunteers themselves and the wider
community). So a community centre is probably closest.
