Devastating earthquakes have killed thousands of people in Turkey and Syria.

Story

This is a fundraising page for Connells Group colleagues.

A series of devastating earthquakes have struck the south-eastern area of Turkey bordering Syria killing at least 9,000 people and injuring many more.

People have been left without shelter in freezing winter conditions. Access to clean water will likely be a challenge, bringing the risk of cholera and other diseases.

DEC charities and their local partners are among the first responders, working with locally-led relief efforts to ensure people have food and clean water.

People need help now. Please donate.

Connells Group will match all funds raised by colleagues through this page during the month of February 2023.
