Political & Campaigning Groups

Leeds Friends of MSF is a student society based in universities around the UK and Ireland. We are part of the official student support organisation for MSF across both nations, and run on a voluntary basis.

Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is an independent international medical humanitarian organisation that delivers emergency aid in more than 60 countries to people affected by armed conflict, epidemics, natural or man-made disasters or exclusion from healthcare.

In emergencies and their aftermath, MSF rehabilitates and runs hospitals and clinics, performs surgery, battles epidemics, carries out vaccination campaigns, operates feeding centres for malnourished children and offers mental health care. When needed, MSF also constructs wells, dispenses clean drinking water, and provides shelter materials like blankets and plastic sheeting.


Our aims are to:

- Raise awareness of MSF’s work and humanitarian issues
- Raise funds for MSF

We will endeavour to do this through various activities, like inviting speakers, film screenings, and other social events.
