DEC launches Turkey-Syria Appeal

Statement from National Emergencies Trust CEO, Mhairi Sharp

If like me you're watching the awful events unfold in Türkiye and Syria and wanting to help the many thousands of people affected, please take a look at the DEC's disaster appeal.

Launched yesterday it is raising funds to help those whose lives have been devastated by the earthquakes.

We often talk about the DEC as our sister charity because (as we do for UK disasters) they raise funds fast for international disasters and then distribute those funds to different charities that can offer specialist support where it's most needed.

Donate to their Turkey-Syria Appeal today and you'll be contributing to efforts of its 15 incredible member charities who can make a huge difference at speed on the ground.
