Turkey and Syria Earthquake appeal

Our thoughts are with those affected by the devastating earthquakes in Turkey and Syria as well as those UK residents who have family or friends in these countries.   

There have reportedly been over 11,000 fatalities with The World Health Organisation (WHO) saying this number could reach as high as 20,000 in the coming days.

Immediate priorities are medical treatment for the injured, shelter for those who have lost their homes, heating in safe spaces, blankets, warm clothes, and ensuring people have food and clean water.
