A Thank You from RedR UK’s President: HRH, The Princess Royal

Since our founding in 1980, we have responded to numerous disasters around the world, each one having provided valuable lessons that we have learnt from and adapted to, in order to improve the quality and impact of our training.  

Over the past 40 years, RedR UK has trained thousands of humanitarian responders in the UK and overseas. Industry leaders, aspiring and established humanitarians, and first responders to international relief efforts; all have benefitted from RedR UK training.

This year, we have also undertaken projects such as the Africa Catalyst and Uganda Skills Projects, providing engineers with the skills and knowledge to prepare for and respond to humanitarian crises across Africa. In the Philippines, we delivered another successful course on Climate Change Adaptation and Disaster Risk Reduction and extended this training to Bangladesh, with more courses scheduled for the new year.

What is clear is that our work remains diverse and necessary, as we continue to respond to some of the most important global disasters of our time.

Together with RedR UK's President, HRH The Princess Royal, we want to take this moment to acknowledge and thank everyone involved in our work and part of our community. 

We would like to thank our dedicated staff, associate trainers, and volunteers without whom it would not have been possible to deliver the online training sessions that build capacity for the sector where it’s needed the most, at such high quality. 

Thank you to our patrons, corporate partners, and donors who have made our work possible and have continued to support us throughout the years. 

Many thanks to our invaluable fundraising heroes and advocates who raise money for RedR UK so that we can continue to plan for the years ahead.

And lastly, thank you to the entire humanitarian sector for continuing to support RedR UK and using us as a resource to train staff and aid workers around the world.

Without your support, hard work, and dedication our continued efforts to build capacity within the sector would not be possible.
