The massive earthquake and resulting tsunami that struck Japan on 11 March have caused widespread destruction and suffering, relayed on television screens around the world.
The Japanese Red Cross has been on the ground since the disaster began and has sent 230 response teams to provide first aid and emergency healthcare, as well as distributing relief items. The teams are made up of more than 1,200 staff, including doctors and nurses.
The costs of the relief effort, and of rebuilding the homes and lives of those affected, will be immense.
Office Green’s donations to the British Red Cross will be used towards helping the Japanese people recover from this devastating natural disaster over the coming months and years.
