AMAR IS AN AWARD-WINNING CHARITY THAT WORKS IN THE MIDDLE EAST, BUILDING AND IMPROVING THE LIVES AND LIVELIHOODS OF SOME OF THE WORLD’S POOREST AND MOST DISADVANTAGED PEOPLE.
FOR THE LAST 25 YEARS WE HAVE PROVIDED PROFESSIONAL HEALTH AND EDUCATION ON A SUSTAINED AND LASTING BASIS, AND TODAY WE DELIVER TENS OF THOUSANDS OF MEDICAL CONSULTATIONS EACH YEAR.
SINCE JUNE 2014, AMAR TEAMS HAVE BEEN WORKING THROUGHOUT IRAQ TO HELP MORE THAN 3.4 MILLION INTERNALLY DISPLACED PERSONS (IDPS) FORCED FROM THEIR HOMES BY THE ISLAMIC STATE (ISIL) INVASION IN THE NORTH AND WEST. WE NOW BUILD, EQUIP, AND RUN PURPOSE-BUILT HEALTH CLINICS FOR IDPS, EMPLOYING LOCAL PEOPLE AND USING LOCAL RESOURCES WHEREVER POSSIBLE.
Hail our number one Manchester supporter, @TotallyHussein of @iraqsolidarity and his friend Tracy (Cleo) Holloway who Rome-d around the @MediaCityUK #Mediacityrun to raise funds for AMAR this week. They even starred on BBC TV to talk about their gladiatorial experience!
Delighted to attend the Conservative Middle East Council @CMECnews meeting this week and meet some fascinating and inspirational people. The #UK Chancellor @PhilipHammondUK attended the event. Here he is with #Iraq 's Ambassador to the UK, Salih Husain Ali Al-Tamimi. Retweeted by AMAR International
