For over 150 years the British Red Cross has been helping millions of people in the UK and around the world get the support they need when crisis strikes.
Our work in the UK
We provide specialist equipment to people in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland to support people with their mobility needs.
We support people living independently at home and those who need help after a stay in hospital.
We provide emergency support for refugees, asylum seekers and vulnerable migrants, including victims of trafficking.
Our Family Tracing services help reunite people seperated by disaster and conflict to reunite with loved ones.
Around the world, whenever a humanitarian crisis occurs, the Red Cross or Red Crescent is always one of the first organisations on the scene thanks to our kind volunteers.
Our volunteers and staff are guided by the seven fundamental principles of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement: Humanity, Impartiality, Neutrality, Independence, Voluntary Service, Unity and Universality.
Today, the challenges posed by an unpredictable and often changing global landscape have never been greater. But our principles still ring true.
They guide us through adversity. They command respect. They make the Red Cross unique.
