Russia continues to specifically target power stations and civilian infrastructure in Ukraine which have destroyed countless power and water supplies leaving whole towns and villages without heating, cooking facilities and internet access and major cities, including the capital Kyiv, subject to rolling & lengthy blackouts. Generators of all sizes are desperately need.

There are a lot of people currently in hospitals who have no family around to bring them any change of clothes or at least something they could wear for the duration of their hospital stay. Many are delivered wounded with what they are wearing being completely ruined and having nothing else to change into. We are collecting some soft comfortable clothes, such as jogging bottoms or shorts, T-shirts, track suits, light cardigans with zips, new underwear and light socks.

Civil and military hospitals are constantly running out of vital items such as ventilators, crutches, walking frames, respiratory masks, scrubs, bandages, wound kits, operating equipment and defibrillators. Local medical and community centres and are in constant need of first aid items and medicines

These shoebox gifts are specifically designed to suit the comfort, hygiene, humanitarian and safety needs of front line Ukrainian soldiers and have been very well-received and appreciated by the soldiers themselves and their commanders.

Binging a little festive cheer to displaced families, orphaned children , and those who have lost everything, or who have access to very little. To see the joy on their faces when they receive a gift of toys, sweets and warm socks, gloves hats and scarfs is reward in itself.

This box is enough to provide the basics to a family for 5 days. Each box costs £20 and we have provided over 500 for Ukraine so far.

It is winter in Ukraine with temperatures down to -20'C. This is going to be the hardest and the coldest winter in the memory of anyone alive in Ukraine today. Ukrainian defenders, yesterday's civilians, need our help to stay warm whilst living and staying on the front line this winter.

Ukraine has appealed for used pick-up trucks and vans – such as Mitsubishi L200, Nissan Navara and Ford Ranger models, and high top, long wheel base (LWB) vans to use as ambulances and evacuation vehicles and aid transport. Right hand drive vehicles are particularly sought after as they confuse Russian snipers who shoot at the wrong side of the cars in an attempt to target the driver.

With water supplies being targeted by Russia, many towns, villages and front line soldiers are without access to clean, safe water. Water purification tablets allow natural supplies of water to be made safer for cooking and drinking. So far, we have provided enough tablets to purify 3,750,000 litres of water (yes, 3 million, 750 thousand litres!).
