WHO WE ARE


FAST (First Aid Support Team) is an organisation made up of volunteer healthcare professionals coming together to provide first aid in Northern France.  

We work in camps around Calais and Dunkirk providing first aid and referring displaced people with medical needs to other services.

We also work closely with other organisations in Northern France providing first aid training for their volunteers.

We strongly believe in the basic human right to being treated with dignity and respect and apply this basic human right in our day-to-day efforts when helping and assisting people forced from their homes by violence, persecution, and poverty.

FAST is an entirely volunteer led organisation, right from the board to the field coordinators and volunteers.
