THE INTERNATIONAL FEDERATION OF RED CROSS & RED CRESCENT SOCIETIES
The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) is the world's largest humanitarian network that reaches 150 million people in 189 National Societies through the work of over 13 million volunteers.
Land Rover’s long-standing relationship with the Red Cross began in 1954 when we provided the British Red Cross with a Series 1 Land Rover to use as a mobile dispensary in Dubai.
The relationship was further cemented in 2007, as part of the development of Land Rover's G4 Challenge. Since then its worldwide achievements include the loan and donation of 120 vehicles and the provision of direct help to more than 800,000 people. Globally more than one million people have also benefited indirectly from Land Rover's support for the IFRC, with funding totalling more than £6.4m since 2007.
In 2013, Land Rover extended its global partnership ‘Reaching Vulnerable People Around the World’ for a further five years, with the aim of providing £15 million worth of support by 2018. This work will contribute to Jaguar Land Rover's overall company goal of creating opportunities through the Global Corporate Social Responsibility programme for 12 million people by 2020.
JLR has been impacted by a cyber incident. We took immediate action to mitigate its impact by proactively shutting down our systems. We are now working at pace to restart our global applications in a controlled manner. At this stage there is no evidence any customer data has been stolen but our retail and production activities have been severely disrupted.
