SUPPORTING PEOPLE ACROSS THE WORLD

Your support enables us to provide a range of services to former hostages – and those arbitrarily detained –  and their families free of charge. We also assist organisations to improve their support to employees and their families in the wake of a kidnap or arbitrary detention, and we work discreetly to encourage governments and employers to improve understanding around the plight of hostages’ families and returning hostages.

Hostage International has supported hundreds of families across the world with issues such as government liaison, emotional and mental health support, supporting children, health and dental assessments, handling the media, legal and financial services.

One beneficiary highlighted the support given by Hostage International:

“Hostage International does not have an enviable task when faced with distraught families but they are prepared to stand by you with deep commitment, tolerance, compassion and rock-solid sense.”
