The aid Glasgow is sending to Turkey and Syria following catastrophic earthquake and how Glaswegians can help

Communities from Glasgow have rallied together to send aid to Turkey and Syria after a magnitude 7.8 earthquake destroyed parts of the middle eastern countries on Monday.

The devastating earthquake struck south-eastern Turkey and north-western Syria on February 6 and it's understood people still remain trapped under the rubble - with families not knowing whether their loved-ones are dead or alive.

The combined death toll has so far reached more than 11,200 but the World Health Organisation (WHO) fears it could be as high as 20,000.
