Myanmar Earthquake Appeal Media Centre

A powerful 7.7 magnitude earthquake has left whole communities in Myanmar devastated.

Thousands of people have died, and hundreds are still missing. Many more have no access to the safe shelter, clean water, food and medical care they need to survive.    

Countless roads and buildings have been destroyed, including hospitals, schools and water supplies. Millions of people are cut off from the services they urgently need.
