From relief to recovery

From emergency medical teams to UK foodbanks, our work is built around what communities actually need.

I still want to learn

The war took Ro'a's home, her books and her father. Today she is back in a classroom at our school in Gaza, one of hundreds of children we are keeping in education through the crisis.

"I only wish I had a school uniform. I want notebooks, books and pens. I want to learn."
