A CAUTION ABOUT FAKES & FRAUDULENT IMITATION
“Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but theft is a sin.”

Our Leadership started ERT SAR and have spent 20 years building the good name of our charity and the global ERT SAR brand. 

Our logos are trademarked and our documents are copyright protected. However, sometimes, less scrupulous people try to fool the public and misrepresent themselves as official members of the ERT SAR organisation or our charity. 

Unfortunately some people may lack the confidence or the ability to create their own version - so they try to take others.   


If you have any doubts, please do not hesitate to contact us at our official email HQ@ert-sar.com

PLEASE NOTE:

All official emails from our management come from the domain "ert-sar.com." 

If it comes from anything else (like ertsar.co.uk) it is not officially from us and probably fraudulent misrepresentation of our charity.
