The World Changed on Thursday 24th February…

Along with everyone, we looked on with a mixture of fear, anxiety, and trepidation as Russian forces invaded Ukraine…

The unthinkable was happening – tanks and soldiers rolling across Europe, cities being shelled, and people running for their lives…

By Sunday we were thinking about what we could do to help, be involved in some small way…

We looked at the obvious sending money to charities, but no one was really engaged – the Red Cross in Luxembourg stated they hadn’t had a request for help from Poland yet…

Then I made a passing comment…

Why don’t we drive over there and drop off some medicine and nappies (diapers..)?

First a HUGE thank you to you for contributing to the funds for our recent Trip to the Ukraine Border – I thought I’d share with you the details of the journey, what we achieved and what we are doing next…

• We collected a total of 7,961 Euros into our PayPal Account…
• The rental Van was donated separately – costing around 450 Euro…
• We topped up the fund with 500 Euro…
• Strangers in the street gave cash – around 100 Euro
• Total funding – approx. 9000 Euro

We have decided to go again – over the four days of 31st March to the 2nd April we are organising a bigger, better and more effective expedition to the Ukraine border…

If you’d like to be involved, make a contribution, join the convoy or have any ideas and tips we can use – please get in touch…
