Edinburgh mum-of-two undertakes life saving work in Pakistan after devastating flood

Millions of people were displaced and thousands lost their lives when the country of Pakistan was impacted by devastating floods last year.

There was a global call to action for aid to be provided to the beleaguered nation and one of those answering the call was Edinburgh mum-of-two Sandra Baldwin. The humanitarian is the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office’s deputy development director for the monsoon-hit nation of Pakistan.

Sandra has a proud history of helping to administer aid having spent time in Western Africa to help deal with the Ebola outbreak as well as Ethiopia responding to famine concerns. But now she has been playing a key role in helping to deliver the UK government's life-saving humanitarian support on the ground.
