Abstract
Based on a research project on ‘British Humanitarian Assistance in Germany after the Second World War’, this essay focuses on the work of British relief teams, provided by the British Red Cross and the Society of Friends, who entered Bergen-Belsen just one week after liberation. The essay concentrates on the main objectives of British wartime planning and the training of relief workers, and goes on to examine the actual deployment of the teams and their perception by the survivors. Written sources traced include documents from the British Government, the Society of Friends and the Jewish Committee for Relief Abroad.
