Medical Emergency Relief International (Merlin) is a British international non-governmental health charity which sends medical experts to global emergencies. In July 2013, Merlin merged with Save the Children. ==History==
Merlin was founded in 1993 by Dr Christopher Besse, Nicholas Mellor and Mark Dalton to create a British charity to send medical teams into disaster zones and then to prevent disease and help develop local health services. Its first mission was to send a convoy to Bosnia carrying £1 million worth of essential food and medicines. Since then Merlin has grown into a specialist charity aimed at responding to natural disasters and humanitarian emergencies, then staying on to rebuild the capacity of local health services. To date, Merlin has worked in over 40 countries and responded to some of the most serious humanitarian emergencies of recent history. These include the Asian tsunami, Darfur and the cyclone in Burma. Merlin has also responded to the 2010 earthquake in Haiti and the flooding in Pakistan. In July 2013, Merlin merged with Save the Children.
