WHO WE ARE AND WHAT WE DO
United Kingdom for UNHCR is the United Nations Refugee Agency’s national charity partner for the United Kingdom. We generate public awareness of the plight of refugees and raise funds to help protect them through UNHCR’s humanitarian operations across the world.

Thanks to our UK supporters, UNHCR teams in over 130 countries can deliver humanitarian relief to families left with no one else to turn to. From rushing life-saving aid to civilians fleeing the frontlines of conflict, to ongoing support, such as education and healthcare, for families whose lives may remain in limbo for years. When it is safe to do so, UNHCR helps refugees return home voluntarily so they can rebuild their lives, homes and communities.
Nobody chooses to be a refugee, but we can all play a part in their protection, and we want those who work with us to share our values and passion for the cause.
