Croce Rossa Italiana – Comitato di Luino e Valli is a local committee of the Italian Red Cross serving Luino and the surrounding communities in the Alto Verbano area. Guided by the Red Cross mission, it supports people through healthcare, social assistance, education and emergency response, relying on the work of its volunteers and collaboration with local organisations.

Its services include emergency ambulance operations, non-emergency medical transport for hospital admissions, discharges, appointments and treatments, and medical support at public, cultural and sporting events. The committee also delivers social support initiatives, including practical assistance and projects aimed at reducing isolation and promoting inclusion, active ageing and community wellbeing.

Training and prevention are central to its work. Courses and educational activities cover first aid, paediatric choking response, CPR and automated external defibrillator use, as well as health education and safety projects for schools and young people. The committee also participates in disaster preparedness and response, migration support and other community programmes.
