| Introduction | We send volunteers overseas to provide medical care to vulnerable people who are effected by natural disasters, conflict and extreme poverty. Our offices run healthcare projects in their capital cities for marginalised populations who cannot access mainstream healthcare services. Overall, we operate in 11 European countries in this way. |
| Interests | DOW UK's office concentrates its work on four major areas: - Recruiting British volunteers for overseas projects run by our French office - Running Project:London which is a healthcare initiative reaching out to vulnerable people in the UK who cannot access mainstream health care services - Raising funds for our overseas projects and for Project: London - Raising awareness about DOW's campaigns, as well as raising awareness of issues concerning obstacles to health care that our volunteers have witnessed in the field. |
