About us
Hostage International is a unique charity delivering essential emotional and practical support to those affected by the kidnap or illegal detention of a loved one, and to hostages after their release.
As most people can only imagine, kidnapping is a terrifying ordeal. Our dedicated team offers free, independent, and confidential support throughout this traumatic time.
Our expertise is in supporting those affected by kidnapping or arbitrary detention outside their home country.

We also work discreetly to encourage governments and employers to improve understanding around the plight of hostages' families and returning hostages.
