Protect communities facing disasters

You Have the Power to Make a Difference Today

When disaster strikes, the Red Cross stands as a beacon of hope, ready to extend a helping hand to those caught in the storm. No matter who they are or where they're from, we are there for them. In the face of an emergency, every second counts, and we must be ready to act immediately.

Your support can help us reach those affected by emergencies that hit the headlines, as well as crises that go unseen. You can also empower communities to prepare for disasters, lessening their impact when they do strike.

In the aftermath of a disaster, people need relief and help to recover. We provide urgent aid to support them, including:

- First aid
- Food, clean water, and shelter
- Cash to buy essentials like warm clothing and medicine
- Emotional support

How You Can Help the British Red Cross Respond to a Disaster:

We rely on the generosity of people like you to help thousands of people in crisis. Supporting our Disaster Fund is the most effective way to ensure that those in need receive the care and kindness they deserve.

Your generous donation will enable us to respond to disasters in the UK and around the world, including armed conflict, climate emergencies like wildfires, flooding and drought, and natural disasters including earthquakes and tsunamis.

When infrastructure like hospitals are destroyed, we step in to ensure people can still receive critical medical care. When the trauma of losing a home tears families apart and leaves communities reeling, we listen, we understand, and we help them move forward. And after any disaster, our teams stay for as long as they're needed.
