Flood relief
When floods cut villages off, we load boats with drinking water, rice and dry food and take them to families who can't leave their homes.
Food, homes and flood relief for three villages in Bangladesh
We're a UK registered charity, run by volunteers in London. We support families in Baharmordan, Shompashi and Rongdash, and people looking for work here in London.

What BSR stands for
BSR is named after three villages in Bangladesh. We're based in London, and we work in both places: in the villages, and in our own community here in the UK.
Our logo shows what we care about most: a home, a schoolbook and a stethoscope. Shelter, learning and health, held up by two pairs of joined hands.
- Baharmordan
- Shompashi
- Rongdash
Our work
Most of what we do happens on the ground in the villages, handed over in person by our volunteers. Tap a photo to see it larger.
Food for families
Rice and essentials for households that are struggling to get by.
Homes that last
Low-cost brick homes for families whose houses can't stand up to the weather.
Planting trees
Saplings given out and planted with neighbours, young and old, for shade, fruit and greener villages.
Warm through winter
Blankets for older people before the cold nights arrive.
Job training in London
Training and support for people in our community in London who are looking for work.
Who we help
We help children and young people, older people, people with disabilities, and families who are struggling to get by.
We do this through grants to individuals and families, and through projects our volunteers run in person.
