Magen David Adom is Israel’s only national medical emergency, disaster, ambulance and blood service. It is also Israel’s national Red Cross society saving lives both in Israel and Internationally. For over 75 years, Magen David Adom UK has raised funds for medical equipment, ambulances, bloodmobiles and ambulance stations for Magen David Adom in Israel. However, Magen David Adom UK also gives aid to other equivalent organisations around the world, providing urgent medical care to civilians irrespective of their nationality or religion.
