Here with the lovely Lyudmyla, Eastbourne resident & Ukrainian national. Just during today's solidarity rally, local people donated enough money to buy emergency food for 28 days for 14 families through the Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC). We raised £385 which will be match funded by the Government to give £770. Follow the link to donate if you can, it is THE most effective way for us to give at this point.
A musical shout out for The Howlerz, sporting ribbons in the colours of Ukraine, who were in town raising funds & spirits too.
And a Thank You to Eastbourne Rotary for their support for today too.
