Let's give Ukrainian children a chance to meet again!

The Friends of Oleksandriya ( www.friendsofo.co.uk) are starting this new fundraiser with a target of £5,000 to support 30 children, aged 16-17, from school Number 11 in Kramatorsk, Ukraine.

As they approach their final school year, they are keen to spend a few days together at a camp before the intensity of their exam preparations begins. Two girls from this group have produced a touching video, which I am including here:
