Millions of people in Gaza, Lebanon, the West Bank and Syria urgently need shelter, food and basic supplies.

Famine has been confirmed in Gaza and every day is a struggle to find food, clean water and basic supplies. People are dying from starvation and malnutrition. Safe and sustained access for humanitarian aid has never been more urgent.

As a core member of the DEC’s Rapid Response Network, The Co-operative Bank are supporting the Middle East Humanitarian Appeal by helping to raise vital funds, and has donated £20,000 to the appeal.

DEC charities and their local partners are working tirelessly to support people in unimaginably difficult conditions. For more information on how and where DEC member charities are responding, please visit dec.org.uk.
