Volunteers from 'Call To Duty' travelling to Bangladesh to assist refugees
Members of the Call to Duty group are travelling to Bangladesh this week to assist the Rohingya Muslims.
Over 450,000 Muslim women, children and men have fled Myanmar over the last month due to their homes being burned and persecution.
Fleeing with absolutely nothing, making a treacherous journey to Bangladesh and many are now living in the muddy fields with very limited food and clothing.
Call To Duty is working with SKT Welfare - a global charity that delivers relief to the most stricken areas of the world. All personal expenses are covered by volunteers to Bangladesh and they are aiming to raise £20,000 to distribute food and clothing.
The group has in the past assisted many refugees in Greece.
