Queen for a Cause: Supporting Refuge & Ukraine Humanitarian

Hello,

I’m Tetiana, honored to hold the title of Miss Swimsuit UK 2025. As a Ukrainian immigrant, a mum of two, and a full-time HR advisor, I’ve learned that true beauty lies in resilience, compassion, and lifting others as you rise.

My grandmother was a victim of domestic violence - and her life was tragically cut short by abuse. That loss drove me to become a survivor... and now, a champion for change. I also carry in my heart the struggles of my homeland: countless Ukrainian women and children have been displaced, traumatized, or left without basic necessities by the ongoing conflict.

Why I’m Fundraising?

I want to use my platform not just to shine on stage but to bring real hope to those who need it most. I’ve chosen two incredible charities to receive 100% of every donation:

1. Refuge – the UK’s leading charity supporting women and children escaping domestic violence. Every pound helps provide emergency accommodation, counselling services, and life-changing advocacy for survivors.

2. Ukraine Humanitarian Fund - a trusted UN-managed fund delivering food, medical aid, psychological support, and emergency shelter to those who were affected by war across Ukraine.

How Your Donation Will Help

• £20 provides a night’s safe shelter and counseling for a family fleeing domestic abuse.

• £40 delivers a “dignity kit” (personal hygiene, clothing, comfort items) to a woman or child in a Ukrainian shelter.

• £100+ helps fund trauma-informed therapy sessions or essential medical supplies for those still under siege.

My goal is to raise £5,000 split evenly between both charities.

No gift is too small - and every share of this page widens our circle of support. Whether you can give £5 or £500, your kindness fuels real change:

1. Donate – click the green “Donate” button.

2. Share – spread the link on social media, WhatsApp, or in your community.

3. Encourage – leave a message of solidarity below; your words matter.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for helping turn my crown into a beacon of hope. Together, we can prove that survivors don’t just endure - they empower others to rise as well.

With gratitude and love,

Tetiana Sorochynska
