Tune in to BBC Radio 4 on Sunday 15th January at 7.54am to hear the broadcaster and psychologist Dr. Sian WIlliams present the Radio 4 Appeal on behalf of Humanity & Inclusion UK.
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!"
How you can listen
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.

One year after the earthquake that struck Myanmar in March 2025, the situation remains fragile: Humanity & Inclusion has provided support to tens of thousands of people in the regions hardest hit by the disaster.
A year ago, a powerful earthquake struck the city of Mandalay, turning Paing Thu Zaw and his family life upside down. Thanks to HI’s support, they are gradually regaining hope and independence.
