Families across Ukraine are in desperate need of safety, stability, protection and care.

War and mass displacement has harmed families' livelihoods and economic opportunities, leaving many without sufficient income to meet their basic needs.

Elena, Martin (13) and Yaroslavna (4) are currently in Ukraine and I am acting as their sponsor for the UK Government's "Homes for Ukraine" scheme.

This means that as soon as their visa is approved, they will be able to travel to the UK and stay with me and my family, in safety.

In order to help them settle quickly when they arrive, I am hoping to raise some money for them so that they can buy whatever essentials they need whilst they're getting settled.

Any help you can offer, no matter how small, would greatly be greatly received!

Thanks everyone!
