The UK government released details regarding how and through which means people can donate to support people affected in the Nepal-China floods.
They shared information of trusted charities and organisations providing humanitarian relief on the ground.
They also announced a £5 million response package to support the most urgent humanitarian needs in Nepal.
It is best to donate cash rather than goods, as it can be transferred quickly so that aid organisations can buy whatever is required.
The government urged people to donate to the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent (IFRC) Societies appeal.
Unsolicited donations of goods, although well-meant, can obstruct supply chains and delay more urgent life-saving assistance from getting through.
If you wish to donate goods, check with charities and community groups. They will have lists of items they need.
The government also highlighted methods to make sure the charity is genuine before giving any financial information.
The government added, "Charities with experience of responding to disasters are best placed to reach victims on the ground."
This appeal comes as the founder of the pharmacy tech company Charac, Santosh Sahu, and his family, have been reported as missing in the flash floods disaster in Tibet and Nepal.
Thousands of people from various countries are currently missing after a collapsed glacier caused flash floods on Wednesday.
Pharmacy Business prays for the safety of the people affected.
