DEAr FriENDS,

For International Medical Corps UK, 2013 represented an important year positioning ourselves as global first responders to humanitarian needs in man made or natural disasters.

This year saw violence and corresponding massive displacement of refugees in many unstable areas. We are proud that we continue to respond in a way that we are confident gives the basis for the fastest and most sustainable route to recovery for all affected vulnerable people. Our response is based on flexibility, efficiency and impact and it is what makes us true leaders in the field. Our services genuinely meet the needs – often complex, often changing - of people whose lives are thrown into chaos by disaster or conflict.

The year began and ended with emergency response to natural disaster – first in Haiti and, at the end of the year, in the Philippines. Haiti was still reeling from the 2010 earthquake and a widespread outbreak of cholera when Hurricane Sandy hit. Our mobile teams are equipped to spread out over a wide area, bringing emergency health services to vulnerable people wherever they are. The same units were able to reach Haitians at the start of the year and be there for survivors of Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines at the end of the year. Both nations were devastated by the respective storms they suffered and health services and infrastructure will take some time to be fully rebuilt. We were amongst the first on the ground, treating survivors and immediately starting to train local people to deliver the health care and support that their communities needed.

We remain a consistent presence in conflict zones of the Middle East, where many years of war have had a huge impact across a wide region. As the Syrian conflict entered its third year, hundreds of thousands had been displaced. We continue to meet the challenges of providing so many trapped and vulnerable people with services from primary health care, to latrines, to mental health support.

Just as important this year has been the huge amount of work undertaken in the under-reported but devastating conflicts in Mali and the Central African Republic. With stories of ‘child soldiers’ involved in narcotics, witnessing and participating in terrible crimes. International Medical Corps were there, helping to provide an alternative for these children so they could leave behind life in an armed group, a life defined by violence and terror.

Our challenge in the coming year is simple: to expand on our achievements and continue to increase our ability to both create real impact on the ground and build the knowledge base for humanitarian work, in pursuit of excellence throughout the field.

We are only able to continue our important work in some of the most dangerous places on earth because of the dedicated support of those who fund it, including the European Commission and the UK Department for International Development, as well as many individuals, companies and foundations. Every gift we receive, whatever its size, is recognised and valued as a true message of the strength of support behind us. None of our difficult work would be possible without our committed and courageous staff and volunteers – let us not forget that the vast majority of our work is delivered by people from the communities we serve, trained on the ground by International Medical Corps, who retain that expertise long after the need for us to remain has gone, building their country’s capacity to respond from within.

Sincerely,

Kevin noone, executive Director, international medical corps uk

Andrew W. Géczy, chairman,international medical corps uk

miSSiON STATEmENTInternational Medical Corps is a global, humanitarian, nonprofit organisation dedicated to saving lives and relieving suffering through health care training and relief and development programmes. Interna-tional Medical Corps is a private, voluntary, nonpolitical, nonsectarian organisation. Its mission is to improve the quality of life through health interventions and related activities that build local capacity in underserved communities worldwide. By offering training and health care to local populations and medical assistance to people at highest risk, and with the flexibility to respond rapidly to emergency situations, International Medical Corps rehabilitates devastated health care systems and helps bring them back to self-reliance.

WhAT WE DOWe assist those in urgent need anywhere, anytime, no matter what the conditions, providing lifesaving health care and health care-related emergency services—often within hours.

As conditions ease, we work with local leaders to rebuild stronger communities. Through our training programmes, we pass essential skills into local hands. Embedding these skills into the community lies at the heart of what we do: build self-reliance. It gives people hit by tragedy a sense of ownership over their own recovery and the ability to shape their own future as they rebuild. And, wherever it occurs, it is an investment that benefits us all because it prepares local residents to be their own First Responders.

Our ApprOAChBecause speed saves lives during the initial hours following a disaster, our Emergency Response Teams deploy fast and begin their lifesaving work immediately, even in the most challenging environments. Drawing on three decades of experience, our surge capacity includes physicians and nurses trained in emergency medicine together with specialists who provide an array of services ranging from technical advice for nutrition, water, sanitation and hygiene to mental health and psychosocial support—all of it to assist those in need.

And that’s just where we start.

We stay on to help survivors build a better future. We work with the community, train local staff, develop partnerships at all levels and evaluate progress to ensure quality. With a staff of more than 4,700 worldwide – 96% of them from the very communities where we work– our teams ensure that the knowledge required to prepare for and respond effectively to an emergency remains anchored in the community and residents can better respond should disaster strike again.

iNTErNATiONAl mEDiCAl COrpS worldwideInternational Medical Corps Worldwide is a global humanitarian alliance that comprises the resources and capabilities of two independent affiliate organisations, International Medical Corps and International Medical Corps UK. Together, their mission is to save lives and relieve suffering through the provision of health care through training. With headquarters in the United States and the United Kingdom respectively, they collaborate to maximise resources for the delivery of appropriate relief and development activities.

EmErgENCyrESpONSE

A ChANCE AT rECOvEry – ThE philippiNESrizza Flores, 11, was at home with her family when super-typhoon haiyan hit leyte in the Philippines on 8 november 2013. haiyan knocked out power and communications, destroyed hospitals and health facilities, and disrupted supply chains and essential services in many areas.

The house collapsed, and Rizza suffered multiple fractures. The pain was excruciating but, with no way to get treatment, Rizza endured two weeks at an evacuation centre in Burauen, with just pain killer medication instead of the orthopedic surgery she badly needed.

Finally, Rizza was carried in a hammock from her mountain home to the Burauen District Hospital. Volunteers from International Medical Corps took Rizza under their care, but realised she urgently needed specialised treatment. With nowhere else to turn, they contacted the Dona Remedios Trinidad Romualdez Medical Foundation to help make arrangements for a medical evacuation by helicopter.

Medics from International Medical Corps moved Rizza from the helicopter to the waiting van in less than five minutes and the convoy sped off to Cebu City’s Chong Hua Hospital, where she underwent a five-hour surgery to repair her injury.

Rizza was just one of 11.3 million people affected by the devastation left in Haiyan’s wake. International Medical Corps deployed our Emergency Response Team within days, including medical professionals and water and sanitation experts. Once on the ground, we recruited 40 local volunteers to staff mobile units, delivering health care with special focus on child and maternal health, nutrition, medication, clean water and hygiene.

Within six weeks, our mobile medical teams provided over 14,600 health consultations.

in 2013, international medical corps responded to natural disasters, conflicts and outbreaks of disease worldwide. our emergency response teams have the ability to bring emergency health care, nutrition, water and sanitation, mental health and other vital health services to those in urgent need.

AgAiNST All ODDS – mAli months of fighting in northern mali resulted in the government losing control of large sections of the country to islamist and tuareg rebels.

In January 2013, the French military began operations to re-establish government control over Northern Mali. An International Medical Corps Emergency Response Team was on the ground in Mali within 11 days of the start of French military operations: one of the first organisations to enter parts of the country affected by conflict, bringing emergency care to people caught up in events which denied them access to their usual health services.

Our team, well used to challenging assignments, faced incredible difficulties on their journey to Timbuktu. For a whole week, they desperately tried to find any route across the centre of Mali, despite repeatedly being turned back at military checkpoints – routes had become impassable, or there were landmines on the road, or militants were still active in the area.

When they finally reached Timbuktu, they were able to assess humanitarian needs of people who had been living with limited access to food and medicines and who had, while occupied by rebel groups, been unable to farm or trade.

Parts of Mali had been cut off for weeks and months - our emergency team was able to quickly assess the most urgent needs and start our first response, paving the way for other humanitarian organisations and the Government of Mali to begin rebuilding these destroyed areas.

ONE pOrT iN A CONTiNuiNg STOrm – CENTrAl AFriCAN rEpubliC“The clinics were packed with people,” said the international medical corps reporting officer in cAr. “The sound of so many children crying and coughing was heart-breaking. Test after test was showing positive for malaria. I will never forget the distraught face of one young mother who held her limp baby in arms; he was severely anaemic.”

By December 2013, the security and humanitarian situation in the Central African Republic was deteriorating rapidly. By now, an estimated 614,000 people had been forced to flee their homes to escape vicious fighting, mainly seeking refuge at religious sites and the airport. Priority needs were for clean water, shelter, food and medical support.

In response to the worsening situation, International Medical Corps set up temporary clinics at two camps to meet the urgent health needs of more than 30,000 people. Each site was equipped with essential drugs, medicines and equipment, with a team of doctors, nurses, midwives, and a pharmacist, as well as a team of community health workers which we mobilised.

International Medical Corps established facilities for testing and treatment for malaria; antenatal consultations and safe deliveries for pregnant women; treatment for severe malnutrition in children; measles and polio vaccinations; treatment for survivors of sexual violence; and the vital work of communicating important messages about health, hygiene and nutrition.

On one day in December alone, International Medical Corps conducted 327 consultations, more than half of which were children under five. While malaria accounted for 60% of cases, we also treated many cases of respiratory infections, diarrhoeal diseases, and malnutrition.

“The medical team are doing an incredible job working under immense pressure and in difficult conditions. These people have suffered so much, but we are relieved that they will at least now be able to access the health care they desperately need.”

EmbrACE ThE uNExpECTED – SOuTh SuDANsurrounded by swamps, Walgak in south sudan is one of the most inaccessible places on earth. life expectancy is 42 years; the nearest secondary school is a three day walk; and women are more likely to die in childbirth than learn to read. the closest hospital is a four day walk.

Tens of thousands of people have been displaced during inter-communal fighting since December 2011, with severe disruption of access to basic services, such as health, nutrition, shelter, water, and education. At the International Medical Corps medical centre in Walgak, our teams noticed a sharp increase in the number of patients with trauma and war-related wounds. We deployed an Emergency Medicine Global Health Fellow to train medics in dealing with the overload of trauma cases.

What she found was an incredible shortage of health care – with only about 220 qualified doctors and nurses attempting to meet the needs of a population of nearly nine million.

Faced with such a huge issue, she branched out from trauma training and began training “everybody she possibly could” on everything from latrine use, to treatment for life-threatening infections, the importance of prenatal care, and much more. She trained village health committees to help overcome community resistance to accessing health services.

She alone undertook the training of about 35 health staff and 100 community members -– and is now back home and looking forward to her next assignment. Those health workers remain in Walgak, sharing their training and improved knowledge of basic health care requirements, every day.

international medical corps has trained more than 6,800 health workers around the world in 2013, with skills from management of communicable diseases to family planning and psychosocial support. We work closely with host government agencies and partner with local non-government organizations and communities to strengthen the health care infrastructure at every level in the countries where we operate.

hOpE glimmErS – CENTrAl AFriCAN rEpubliCthe central African republic is one of the least developed countries on earth, having endured political instability of varying degrees for over half a century since gaining independence in 1960.

“During periods of violence and insecurity, children become more vulnerable,” says an International Medical Corps Protection Officer in North Eastern CAR. “For children who have so little and no future prospects, armed groups often present an opportunity for better living conditions.”

We identified 424 children who had been associated with armed groups. International Medical Corps offered them psychosocial support, health care and civil rights training. The children told us that lack of education and employment opportunities made it easier for armed groups to recruit them – so we worked with schools to create opportunities for the children to meet, socialise and relax, along with literacy and vocational training to develop skills, even apprenticeship schemes within the community.

“This project has given a glimmer of hope to children who have been at the frontline, of the conflict and will ensure the future protection of many more,” our colleague told us.

One of the boys this project reached is Mahamath, who was 10 when he spoke to us in 2013.

“My brother was killed in 2011 during fighting between ethnic groups… It was at this time that I integrated into the armed group for my protection and survival. Given my age, I was only used as a carrier of ammunition and for spying, but I saw horrible things – murder, looting, rape and burning down houses. I will always have in my memory the image of a rape where the victim, a young girl of 21 years, lost her life.

“Now I am back at school through the programme developed by International Medical Corps… I am so thankful for this help and I wish that International Medical Corps continues to help my comrades who are still involved in the fighting.”

It is estimated that over 2,000 boys and girls have been associated with armed groups in the Central African Republic: our work there continues.

A hEAlTh EmErgENCy – ChADin June 2012, chad faced a public health emergency, with the highest number of reported polio cases ‒ and the second highest rate of unvaccinated children ‒ in the world.

In partnership with the World Health Organisation (WHO) and UNICEF, International Medical Corps’ project covered three objectives: improving availability and uptake of polio vaccination; increasing communities’ abilities to cope with outbreaks; and strengthening the Ministry of Health to deliver better immunisation services and monitor the spread of the disease.

Over the course of a year, International Medical Corps implemented four mass polio vaccination campaigns, ensuring that the right households and children were targeted. We were able to deploy volunteers to communities before the programme of vaccination began, to discuss the benefits and encourage families to take up vaccination.

According to independent monitoring, all of the campaigns exceeded 95% uptake – possible because we were able to reach community leaders, teachers and religious leaders, and their local influence encouraged others. We also ran door-to-door awareness raising, and set up 20 “Model Mother Groups” to educate parents on immunisation and the myths surrounding polio vaccinations.

international medical corps’ focus on women and children flows from simple realities. of the more than 80 million people in need of humanitarian assistance in 2014, over 75% are women and children and their well-being is recognised as the key ingredient to promoting health; building stable, confident, self-reliant communities; and eradicating global poverty.

DiSplACED livES – JOrDANin the years of fighting since march 2011, the un estimates that over 10,000 syrians lost their lives in the escalating and bloody internal conflict between pro- and anti-government forces.

Aicha endured more than most of us can imagine. Badly injured during a mortar attack, she has lost three children, and doesn’t know where her other two children and one grandchild are. They had been packing to flee Dara’a when the mortar struck. In April 2013, there were around four million Syrians in desperate need: suffering illness or injury, displacement, separation from family, loss of income and dignity - each with their own painful tale.

At Za’atri camp, 21-year-old Ala’ volunteers at a centre run by International Medical Corps and UNICEF. There, the specially-designed activities help children start to recover from the trauma they’ve been through – and International Medical Corps child psychologists can identify those most at risk and in need of more support.

With her 20-month-old baby and six siblings, Ala’ fled to the camp at the start of 2013 when shelling destroyed her neighbourhood. A three year old cousin lost a leg in the attacks. Ala’ told us she was terrified to leave the only home she had ever known, and of what would become of her and her family.

Today she is healing herself through caring for the many displaced children in the camp. She teaches them painting and carefully creates beautiful henna designs on their hands. It feels good, Ala’ says, to put her skills to work and help the children from her community. She speaks about feeling a sense of purpose beyond her own struggles, despite being displaced and living in limbo herself.

NuTriTiON

ThE ShADOW OF huNgEr – SiErrA lEONEmalnutrition rates in sierra leone are among the highest in the world and it is the leading cause of child mortality in the country.

In May 2013, Mabinty Kargbo’s twin daughters were six months old. With a 10 year old son and a daughter, four, her husband had left her to cope with the challenge of feeding four growing children alone.

It was getting harder every day. From June to August, the rainy season hits which can mean week-long storms, impassable routes, and impossible conditions for growing food. Prices at the market go up and the poorest and most vulnerable – like Mabinty and her children - go hungry.

But this year Mabinty has some support in place. International Medical Corps set up a range of projects in four districts of Sierra Leone, which will prevent malnutrition in children. By the time the rainy season began, she was already receiving food for her little ones, and extra food for herself too so she could continue to breastfeed the babies through the hardest time of the year.

Just as important, is the visit that Mabinty receives once a month from Elizabeth. Elizabeth is part of the same community, she’s been trained as a ‘Lead Mother’ by International Medical Corps. She brings with her advice on preparing nutritious food from whatever is available and health messages on hygiene, breast-feeding and reproductive health.

Working together, International Medical Corps and its partners - community leaders, mothers and neighbours - make sure that Mabinty and her young family have the best possible chance of thriving for the future.

hunger kills more people worldwide than hiV, tuberculosis, and malaria combined, and children are the most vulnerable. international medical corps runs nutrition and food security programs on three different continents in some of the world’s most food-stressed areas. in 2013, international medical corps treated more than 150,000 children with malnutrition.

AFTEr ThE FlOODS, ThE huNgEr – pAkiSTANheavy floods in the sindh province of Pakistan during summer 2011 left an area the size of Wales under water.

Coming less than a year after even more devastating floods the previous year, more than five million people were affected, many of them children. The health consequences of this crisis were severe, as stagnant water and a shortage of clean drinking water led to sharp increases in malaria infections, diarrhoea cases and other water related diseases.

Malnutrition was already a serious issue in this area of Pakistan with UN estimates that almost one quarter of children under-five were malnourished. As families were forced out of their homes and millions of acres of farmland were submerged, the threat of a hunger crisis in Sindh was very real.

With support from the European Commission (ECHO), International Medical Corps delivered primary healthcare and nutrition services to those most in need. International Medical Corps’ nutrition experts helped more than 7,000 malnourished children, including 1,300 with the most severe forms of malnutrition. We also treated more than 8,000 children for diarrhoea, which is particularly dangerous for children as dehydration causes death extremely quickly.

rEbuilDiNg brOkEN livES – hAiTilate in 2012, hurricane sandy swept across the caribbean, devastating haiti. 54 people died, crops were destroyed, and thousands of people were left homeless ‒ people already vulnerable after the 2010 earthquake and struggling to cope with the worst outbreak of cholera in recent history.

International Medical Corps was one of the first responders after the hurricane and, by January, we were operating Mobile Medical Units (MMUs) across the whole of the south of the island. Each MMU can serve up to 70 patients every day - the most vulnerable people in one of the poorest countries on earth.

As well as emergency and primary healthcare, an MMU is also a distribution point for hygiene kits and essentials like blankets, water containers and soap. Just these basic items helped more than 1,000 families start to get back on their feet after utter devastation.

During the hurricane, a falling tree destroyed the pipes which supply clean water to the people of Aquin, forcing them to turn to an unsafe source putting themselves at risk of diarrhoea and cholera. While working to restore a safe water supply, we also distributed water purification tablets - a simple step but one which protected thousands of Haitians from sickness and death.

Our project manager in Aquin, commented “If you work in a clinic, you may deliver a beautiful baby girl,” she says. “But I get to fight for something else: to have more health facilities where women can give birth safely and hygienically; more trained OBGYNs; places where a mother can take her child if it is sick.”

WATEr & SANiTATiON hygiENEWithout clean water, sanitation and hygiene (WAsh), public health cannot be achieved. Globally, one in five child deaths is due to diarrhoea. Further, half the hospital beds in developing countries are occupied by people with WAsh-related diseases such as diarrhoea, pneumonia, eye and skin infections, malaria, cholera, and typhoid. in 2013, international medical corps reached more than 500,000 people with messages on improved hygiene to protect the most vulnerable against water related illnesses.

“JuST FOr mE” – EThiOpiAAhado, 17, has lived in the Dollo Ado refugee camp in ethiopia since 2009. she and her sister fled from the fighting in somalia ‒ it was a difficult journey for anyone, but particularly for Ahado who has used a wheelchair since being paralysed by polio when she was five years old.

Ahado is one of 42,000 men, women and children supported by the International Medical Corps sanitation and hygiene team at Dollo Ado. We were pleased to be able to help Adaho with her particular need for a wheelchair-friendly latrine.

“Using a standard latrine was not only difficult but also dangerous. I couldn’t go in with my wheelchair so my clothes and body were exposed to contamination. This meant that even a superficial scratch on my skin could become infected and lead to disease.

“Before International Medical Corps, different NGOs worked on building latrines but no one considered disabled ladies like me. Now, thanks to International Medical Corps, I have this special latrine!

“It’s not enough to say this is a good latrine, it is a special latrine that was constructed just for me! With a widened door, it has enough space to transfer from wheelchair to the toilet seat, the seat is high enough and with enough support to sit easily, it also has a special seat for a bath in the same room. While using this facility I don’t need any support from anybody else.

“Thank you International Medical Corps. Please keep up your help for those people and their special needs.”

Adaho, we are proud to have been able to help you.

ShAriNg hOpES, FOllOWiNg DrEAmS – libyAinternational medical corps worked in libya throughout the civil war which led to the overthrow of colonel Gaddafi. once the fighting ended in october 2011, we remained behind, to support the country to rebuild. in 2012, we began working at the tadamon centre in misurata, and met hannah.

Hannah was 22 years old and visited the International Medical Corps physiotherapy unit at the centre each week to get help with the weakness in her legs - caused by spastic parapesi - that makes it difficult to walk.

To begin with, Hannah was very shy, and wouldn’t speak to anyone. She would often skip appointments and was not making much progress with her physiotherapy. So our team of physiotherapists and psychosocial experts spoke to Hannah, her doctors and her family, and discovered they had been told her disability would inevitably worsen, and nothing could help. Not surprisingly, Hannah had given up all hope.

An International Medical Corps physiotherapist at the Tadamon Centre, told us: “I explained to Hannah that we could not ‘cure’ her condition, but she did have the power to control if and when it would get worse, through hard work at her physiotherapy. Simply by introducing the idea that she has control over her own destiny made a huge difference to Hannah’s whole approach to her treatment.” At the same time, our psychosocial specialists invited Hannah to join the new group activities that had become available since our involvement.

Very quickly, Hannah began to make friends. She explained, “…this was the first time I have ever met other people with disabilities and it makes me feel less alone and ‘different." She even joined in creating an exhibition of photography showing their plans and dreams for the future. The group helped Hannah realise that the things most important to her – family, friends and faith – will always be there to support her.

International Medical Corps Rehabilitation Co-ordinator, told us, “Hannah faces more challenges and uncertainty than most 22 year olds anywhere else in the world. But, with the support of those around her, she hopefully now has the confidence and the strength to face whatever comes her way. I doubt that would have been the case if International Medical Corps had never come to Misurata.”

mENTAlhEAlThinternational medical corps recognises the importance of treating mental health and psychosocial needs just as seriously as more visible public health needs. our unparalleled expertise in the field means we respond to the needs and build the capacity at every level of communities affected by conflict or disasters. in 2013, we treated more than 291,300 people with mental health needs.

yOur giFT Will DO SO muCh

Any help you can give could mean the difference between life and death for someone struggling to find stability in a war zone, or whose world has been turned upside down by natural disaster.

The most helpful gift we can possibly receive is a regular monthly donation. When your help is spread out over the course of a year, it helps our cashflow and our ability to plan how we will use resources for the coming months.

You can set up a monthly donation at:

www.internationalmedicalcorps.org.uk/donate

or give us a call on 020 7253 0001 and we will be glad to send you a simple form to fill in.

Or if you prefer, a cheque (payable to International Medical Corps UK) can go in the post to our address:

A giFT iN yOur Will

of course, when making your will, your loved ones are your first priority. but many people choose to also remember a cause that is important to them. this could be the most significant gift to charity you ever make.

A gift in your will is one of the most valuable ways you can support us – it costs nothing during your lifetime but will have a powerful impact on the lives of vulnerable people for years to come.

We understand this is a sensitive subject, and very personal, so if you would like to discuss in further detail, in complete confidence and with no commitment, please call our Director of Resource Development & Communications:

Kerry Kingsmill, on 0207 017 3166 or email: [email protected]
