RedR
In recent years the world has seen a steady increase in the frequency and complexity of humanitarian crises. There is a
growing need to ensure that relief workers have adequate training so that they are able to respond to disasters quickly and
effectively.
For 30 years, RedR has been at the forefront of professional disaster relief, training and recruiting aid workers. This last
year, we trained over 3,400 relief workers in 20 different countries. The training covered everything from water and
sanitation to logistics, personal security and health. By training aid workers to be fully prepared for emergency situations,
RedR is ensuring that those people whose lives have been torn apart by a natural disaster or conflict receive the appropriate
help. Having sufficiently prepared personnel arrive on the scene of a disaster as it unfolds means that those who have
lost everything gain access to clean water, adequate sanitation and shelter quickly; and that the safety of the aid workers
responding is not compromised.
In a time when climate change and political volatility are certain to displace even more communities, RedR’s supporters play
a vital role in enabling the organisation to respond to the increasing demand for our services.
By choosing one of our corporate Christmas card designs, you can help RedR save lives, reduce human suffering and
preserve human dignity among those affected by disasters by improving the speed, quality and effectiveness of the
humanitarian response.
Thank you for your support.
