‘‘

The British Red Cross helps people in crisis

whoever and wherever they are. We are the

largest voluntary organisation supporting 190

countries which provides a global network

that responds to conflicts around the world

including Syria and Yemen. We also respond

to natural disasters such as the earthquakes

in Nepal and Italy, as well as individual

emergencies like flooding on the Somerset

Levels and supporting local communities.

In Cornwall we assist practically to help

people gain their independence after a crisis

or being in hospital by providing mobility

aids and wheelchairs. We have an emergency

response vehicle and team, who with the

other emergency organisations, coordinate to

bring relief to people who have been

involved in a fire or flood. Finally we are

working with the Co-Op to reach out to

people who are isolated and lonely helping

them to reconnect with their communities.

This inspirational evening ‘Humanity in Crisis’,

has been organised by Vice President

Lucy Dorrien-Smith, and represented by the

artists who have had the vision to empathise

and paint the plight of those in need.

Rosie Jackson Cornwall President for British Red Cross

Welcome to this special Gallery opening in aid of The British Red Cross and The Tiffany Circle

’’Maggie O’Brien

‘‘13 years ago I made a series of drawings of the24 hour queue of asylum seekers and economic

migrants outside the Home Office Nationality

Directorate in Croydon. 13 years later the

people are different but the problems are the

same - thousands of people trying to gain

access to another country to improve, and in

many cases, save, their lives. Recent world

conflict has forced people to take huge risks

and live in abject circumstance to escape war.

By showing a new series of paintings inspired

by the refugee crisis alongside the original

Home Office drawings I hope to emphasise

how little has changed in the way society views

and handles human displacement.
