Fantastic news! We are delighted to announce that Dr. Sian WIlliams will be presenting the BBC Radio 4 Appeal for Humanity & Inclusion UK.
The renowned broadcaster and psychologist has pledged her support to help raise funds for Humanity & Inclusion's vital rehabilitation work with injured and disabled people in conflicts such as Ukraine, Yemen, Iraq, and Syria.
The appeal features the story of Hala, a young girl from Yemen who was deeply traumatised after losing her leg in a bombing. It describes the life-changing process of rehabilitation and the huge importance of psychological support in this journey.
In a recorded message to listeners, Dr. Sian Williams explains why she chose to support our appeal:
Dr. Sian is inviting listeners to tune in to the appeal, saying:
"It's a fantastic charity... They understand that a prosthetic limb on its own is not enough. For those who are severely traumatised, and often those people are children, long-term psychological support is also vital."
"That's why I'm supporting this charity and I hope that you can as well. Do listen out for us on Sunday 15th January and do, like me, support the incredible work that Humanity & Inclusion UK is doing. Thank you!"
You can tune in and listen to the appeal live on BBC Radio 4 on Sunday 15th January at 7.54am and repeated at 9.25pm.
Soon after the first broadcast, the appeal will be available to listen to online.
The appeal will be broadcast again on Radio 4 on Thursday 19th January at 3.27pm.
You can donate to our BBC Radio 4 Appeal by phone, post or online from Sunday 15th to Saturday 21st January at bbc.co.uk/appeal/radio4
Alternatively you can donate online at any time, directly on our website.
Humanity & Inclusion is launching a global campaign: "The Nobel Piece. Repairing peace, together." Twenty-eight years after winning the Nobel Peace Prize for civil society's relentless fight to ban anti-personnel mines, these weapons are on the rise again: massive use in recent armed conflicts, states withdrawing from the Ottawa Treaty, new mine production, etc. Faced with this urgent situation, HI will call on states to fulfil their responsibilities to comply with the Treaty and stop the return of these insidious weapons, which kill civilians in 90% of cases, by presenting them with fragments of the Nobel Prize – a symbol of peace that is now in pieces.
Seven Humanity & Inclusion staff have been awarded the Humanitarian Medal, approved by HM The King, for their lifesaving work in Gaza. They are the first Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) team to receive the award.
Double amputee Ayman can move again freely with the support of Humanity & Inclusion.
