About International Health Partners (IHP)

Most of us can readily access the medicines we need. But for millions of people around the world who don’t have this reliable access, many easily treatable diseases can mean chronic pain, poor quality of life or even a death sentence. The global pandemic has exacerbated this access gap, and in countries with already weak health systems, COVID-19 and its knock-on effects, is having devastating consequences. Our work to build strong health systems and enable better access to healthcare around the world is needed now more than ever before.

International Health Partners (IHP) supports people in hard-to-reach, vulnerable and disaster-hit communities to get the medicines they need, by coordinating the safe and responsible donation of long-dated medical products. We work with our strong network of global healthcare, logistics and NGO partners, to source and send treatments to where they are needed most, to help prevent the needless suffering caused by a lack of access to healthcare.

Our Christian faith underpins all that we do. It motivates us to care for those in need, and give our best in all circumstances as an expression of God's love. We serve those in need regardless of gender, sexual orientation, ethnic or religious background, believing that all people are of equal worth.

In the last two years, IHP has sent over ten million treatments to vulnerable communities around the world including places such as Yemen, South Sudan and Haiti.  We run multiple partnerships to support this work: with pharmaceutical companies who donate medicines and supplies; with logistics partners who help us warehouse and ship the medicines overseas; and finally, with our valued NGO partners and individual medics that deliver healthcare to those who need it. Together these partnerships enable medicines to reach those in need.
