Story
At Red Hill C. of E. Primary School, Worcester, community, kindness and equality are everything. Our school values underpin everything that we do in school in order to serve our community by providing an education of the highest quality for all of our pupils first and foremost. This year has presented unprecedented challenges for all of us in our community and we have managed to overcome many of them through the qualities that our school and Christian values teach us. We would now like to extend our sense of community to provide help to those who need it most around the world. We are fundraising for UNICEF to provide those vital vaccinations to people around the world who may not have direct access to a free vaccination.
Vaccines are essential to overcoming the Covid-19 crisis. With half of UK adults having had their first dose, now is the time to support communities in low and middle income countries around the world with equal and free access to protection against the virus
UNICEF is ensuring no one is left behind in the race to vaccinate against COVID-19. Because we'll only be safe when we're all safe. This is the biggest health and logistics project in history - and we can do something to help.
Why UNICEF?
UNICEF is the only global organisation ready to deliver an operation of this size, being experts in large-scale vaccination initiatives. As part of the COVAX Facility, with your help they’re using their extensive knowledge and infrastructure to deliver COVID-19 vaccines around the world. COVAX is a ground-breaking collaboration between 190 countries - Its aim is simple: ensure every country in the world has fair and equal access to the COVID-19 vaccines. It’s co-led by Gavi (The Vaccine Alliance) and the WHO, among others.
