Built around a hypothetical disaster that unfolds in real time over a two-day period, this is a challenge that will test the calmest and most practical of you
The ERU’s role is to respond as quickly as possible to a humanitarian disaster, whenever and wherever in the world it may occur. If you think this is a field you would like to work in and want to find out more about what’s involved, or you simply want to do something different for a weekend and support the work of the Red Cross, you will get a lot out of this challenge.
