Human Aid UK has launched an urgent emergency appeal to provide humanitarian relief to people affected by the severe drought and malnutrition occurring in the countries of eastern Horn of Africa.

Famine, drought and conflict have left millions of people needing food, water and healthcare. The UN says that in the last few months, tens of thousands of Somalis have died of causes related to malnutrition. Most of them were children.

We need to mitigate the impact of drought in the region, but it is now in an extreme situation where we urgently need more funds to address emergency needs.

Money raised will go to support the work of Human Aid providing emergency relief.

£14 can provide a child with high energy food supplements for a week.
£10 can provide clean water to 200 people.
£10 can provide emergency food to 10 families per day.
