Hey everyone,

I wanted to do the Great North Run for a charity place this year, and running for the British Red Cross felt like a great way to support people affected by humanitarian crises around the world. The charity’s volunteers do incredible work providing help and support when it’s needed most. Any donations would be greatly appreciated 😊

I have joined #TeamRedCross to ensure that they can help anyone, anywhere in the UK and around the world, get the support they need if crisis strikes.

Every pound donated will make a huge difference to help those affected by crisis:

£5 could provide a community in Bangladesh with training on water sanitation and hygiene, helping people keep themselves healthy after a disaster.

£12 could buy a hygiene pack for a refugee or person seeking asylum in the UK, giving them access to some of the basics no one should go without.

£20 could give a parent in the UK the essential items they need to care for a newborn baby, when they have lost everything due to flooding.

£50 could help a family in Nigeria prepare for when severe flooding hits again.

£75 could keep 150 survivors of a fire at a block of flats in the UK warm, while we support them to find emergency accommodation for the night.

Any donation you can give would be much appreciated!
