International Medical Corps UK, a global humanitarian and disaster relief charity, is hosting a unique special event to share details of their lifesaving work around the world. This free event will feature exclusive accounts directly from International Medical Corps colleagues based in some of the world’s most difficult and dangerous locations including Jon Cunliffe, Country Director for Yemen and Ekin Ogutogullari, who has led IMC teams in Burundi, Ethiopia and most recently in Kenya.

Jon Cunliffe, currently leads the IMC team in a country where more than a million children are suffering from acute malnutrition and 8.6 million people have no access to health care. That’s the equivalent of the population of London with no access to help when they’re sick or in need.

Ekin Ogutogullari has spent five years at the forefront of our efforts to battle the HIV/AIDS epidemic, protect children from the threat of famine and ensure communities have access to safe drinking water and sanitation across east Africa.

This is a unique opportunity to see the impact of our work.

Please come along and see for yourself.

Please feel free to bring a friend or pass onto someone who you feel maybe interested. Light refreshments will be provided.
