The Turkish community in Newcastle has banded together to collect donations, both monetary and physical, to go towards the Turkey earthquake appeal.
They have raised over £75,000 in just one week, with a target of £100,000, as well as clothes, sanitary products, food, tents and other essential items.
The money will be sent directly to the charity AFAD's Earthquake Humanitarian Aid Campaign, that aims to meet the urgent needs of citizens in the disaster, working alongside the government and other charities.
