Our thoughts are with all of those affected by the devastating events occurring in Israel and Gaza. The loss of innocent civilian life and the humanitarian tragedy unfolding is truly distressing.

It’s important to us to give our support to those impacted by armed conflict, hatred or division that has sadly spread beyond the immediate region. As an inclusive organisation, we want to ensure that all our colleagues and members have access to support at this difficult time.  LionHeart is an independent charity that can support past, present and future RICS professionals and their families.
