Story
Freddie & Dexter saw a video of a young brave boy who has to leave his town & family behind in Ukraine & decided they wanted to help.
So we decided to make some signage & sell dog biscuits on the Cliff Top in Gorleston on Saturday 5th March from 2.00pm.
If you can’t make please do consider donating online.
All money raised & all donations will go towards the Red Cross DEC Appeal which is helping families and communities in Ukraine and the border countries.
What is the DEC?
