“Our only hope is to stay alive for another day.” – Saaed, CARE Palestine This is the lived reality for our colleagues in the Gaza Strip who are working tirelessly to provide aid while also being displaced with the same struggles as the people they serve. Please look through to read their stories.

A year ago, the Labour government’s promise to change the UK’s approach to development began with hope. 1 year on, we're left with: 🔶 A drastically SLASHED aid budget 🔶 Funding for gender equality TARGETED in aid cuts 🔶 And a HUGE rollback on women's rights Write to your MP: careint.uk/4knTD6i

We’ve done it! 🎉 Tonight, in a landmark vote, MPs backed bodily autonomy and ensured that no one will face prosecution for ending their own pregnancies in England and Wales. More thanks to come - but if you’ve liked, shared, or written to your MP, this reform is thanks to you. 👏

Gaza is now the hungriest place on earth. (UN) The entire population are still facing a critical risk of Famine while aid is sitting just outside the border but agencies are being blocked from entering. Israel MUST allow full, free & safe aid access into & throughout #Gaza.

To the women who use their platforms to change the world 🧡 Over the last few weeks we’ve seen women across industries using their voices to condemn the aid blockade in Gaza and the continued bombardment of Palestinian people. The UK Government must STOP arm sales to Israel. #CeasefireNOW

Today the Government has confirmed that women and girls are NOT their priority. In the 132-page Comprehensive Spending Review there was not a single mention of women and girls' rights for the first time in history. This is despite a promise to promise to put them "at the heart of foreign policy."

The rights of women and girls are facing unprecedented levels of threat. What can YOU do to stand up for the rights of women and girls? Remember, you have more influence than you think. When we all speak out, together we are stronger 💪

Just 37% of Brits think the govt cares about the rights of women & girls. With headlines like these, is it any surprise? The govt is at risk of leaving women & girls to bear the brunt of its decision to cut the aid budget. Write to your MP today & help change that: careint.uk/4knTD6i

Sudan is experiencing the world’s largest humanitarian crisis. 25 million people – almost half the population of England – face starvation. We stand with the Sudanese activists, civil society groups and charities calling for urgent government action before it's too late. #KeepEyesOnSudan
