Edinburgh Direct Aid International

The charity’s purpose is to bring relief to those suffering as a result of man-made or natural catastrophes abroad, in any theatre in which we are able to make an effective, albeit small, contribution. and to do this under the personal supervision and friendly contact of our volunteers, not using paid staff excepting those recruited from, and to carry out tasks in, beneficiary countries. The help we bring spans a wide range, including provision of emergency shelter, schools, food, clothing, music therapy for traumatised children.
