The No More Landmines Trust (also known as No More Landmines) is a United Kingdom based humanitarian landmine relief charity. The charity focuses on landmine and unexploded ordnance removal, mine risk education programmes, and rehabilitation of survivors of landmine injuries. No More Landmines was established in May 2005 as the UK administrator of the United Nations Association Adopt-A-Minefield campaign, which has cleared over 21 million square metres of affected land since 1999.
