Background The British Red Cross helps people in crisis whoever and wherever they are. We enable vulnerable people at home and overseas to prepare for and respond to emergencies in their own communities. And when the crisis is over, we help people recover and move on with their lives. In the UK, we are committed to helping vulnerable individuals within our communities; our Emergency Response Service ranges from training volunteers in preparation for any major disaster to providing assistance to anyone who has just suffered a house fire. Sustaining these commitments involves a huge operation to raise public awareness and support. Although this represents an enormous challenge, the Red Cross prides itself on being one of the largest humanitarian organisations in the world. Website Link www.redcross.org.uk
