Our emergency response project, initiated in collaboration with My 1st Years, has been instrumental in delivering essential items such as clothing, hygiene products, and other vital supplies to displaced families and individuals in Ukraine, its borders and to those families fleeing the conflict, and arriving in the UK. This award recognises the dedication and hard work of our volunteers, partners, and supporters, whose collective efforts have made a significant difference in the lives of many.
Two years on, the urgency of the situation in Ukraine cannot be understated. As the world marks the somber anniversary of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, it's crucial to acknowledge that the plight of Ukrainians remains as dire today as it was when the conflict escalated two years ago. The stark reality is that the crisis in Ukraine is far from over. Lives continue to be upended, communities shattered, and futures remain uncertain.
On Tuesday 5th September our CEO and Founder, Rosalind Bluestone MBE, and Head of Fundraising and Partnerships, Andrew Anastasiou, had the honour of attending an event at the House of Comms that truly embodied the spirit of compassion and support. Guests of Watford MP Dean Russell, the evening was nothing short of inspiring.
In a world where the cost of living continues to rise, the challenge of making ends meet is an all too familiar story for many of the people we support. The stark contrast between government stipulations and the reality often leaves individuals struggling to bridge the gap, as they find themselves grappling with rising expenses and stagnant wages. The result is a deeply troubling situation where many are left struggling to make ends meet, facing difficult decisions and sacrificing necessities just to get by.
