On the morning of 12 June, our colleague and friend Olya received heartbreaking news: her father lost his life in the ongoing conflict.

Olya is a much-loved member of our team, known for her warmth, resilience, and quiet strength. She's been super active in the West London business community since coming over when the war started. Now, she and her sister Yulia are facing an incredibly difficult time as they prepare to travel home to say goodbye and arrange a proper burial for their father.

We’ve created this page to offer practical support and help ease the financial burden of last-minute travel, funeral costs, and time away from work. We are keeping this fundraiser discreet to respect Olya’s privacy as she grieves, and we are only sharing it with those who know her or wish to help quietly.

Any donation, however small, would go a long way in helping Olya and her family through this painful time.

Thank you for your kindness and support.
