Rapid. Agile. Capable. Trusted.


REACT is a lean humanitarian organisation powered by a highly trained volunteer force drawn from emergency services, veterans, and skilled civilians operating in the UK and internationally. Our people are selected not just for what they know, but for their ability to operate calmly, decisively and responsibly in uncertain, high-risk environments.

We deliver rapid humanitarian action for the hardest to reach and most
vulnerable communities - anywhere, anytime; bringing order to chaos.

We assess needs quickly, fill critical gaps, support affected communities and strengthen the wider response in both the UK and further afield.

We are guided by humanitarian principles, acting impartially and always in
response to urgent need.

Walking into uncertainty. Ready to act.
