Recipient Org: Description At the British Red Cross we strive towards a world where everyone gets the help they need in a crisis. In everything we do, from supporting local communities in the UK to building resilience internationally, we harness the incredible power of people’s kindness for those who need it most. We are a unique network of humanity that gives individuals and communities the help they need to prepare for, respond to and recover from emergencies, both at home and abroad. We believe that every crisis is personal, which is why we provide impartial support to people based on their humanitarian need and nothing else. We help millions of people cope with all kinds of crises. In the UK this includes responding to emergencies such as fires and floods, supporting refugees and asylum seekers, helping people to live independently after coming home from hospital, and training people in first aid. Internationally, we partner with other Red Cross and Red Crescent societies to help people who are facing hunger, are caught up in conflict, have been affected by disasters like storms and earthquakes, and have been forced to flee their homes. We’re an organisation made possible by everyday acts of human kindness. We’re powered by more than thousands of volunteers and nearly 3,000 staff. It’s their determination to help others, along with the generosity of our supporters, that allows us to do what we do. We’re part of the world’s largest humanitarian network, the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, which has more than 17 million volunteers across 191 countries. This gives us a unique ability to respond to humanitarian crises around the world – with a local presence responding in almost every country, combined with a global network able to mobilise and coordinate extraordinary responses to emergencies.
