Medair UK is a humanitarian aid agency providing emergency relief in countries affected by war or natural disaster. It operates in forgotten crises and in areas that are remote and difficult to access. MEDAIR will often be the first organisation to enter such areas and may be the last to leave.

Red Cross is a volunteer-led humanitarian organisation that helps people in crisis, whoever and wherever they are. The Red Cross Movement is distinctive from other humanitarian organisations. Its role is recognised by international treaties and national laws. All its actions are governed by seven fundamental principles: humanity, impartiality, neutrality, independence, voluntary service, unity, and universality. The British Red Cross is part of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, the world's largest independent humanitarian organisation.
