The Rotary Club of Leighton Linslade like everyone has been appalled by the developments in Ukraine and on Monday evening donated £2,000 to the Rotary Disaster Fund which will enable Rotary Clubs still operating in Ukraine as well as those in bordering countries to help local people on the ground without going through massive bureaucracy. Rotary understands from its experiences in the pandemic that some of the quickest and most effective help is delivered by people like local Rotary Clubs working in their own communities.
In Leighton Linslade we are also pleased to say that we have been able to open up a line of communication to the Kyiv Multinational Rotary Club and their President Oksana Blazhko.
In her latest message Oksana said Its great you donate to Disaster Fund which we will be able to access, we are buying mostly medicine".
We aim to try and keep communication open to Oksana and her fellow Rotarians providing they can stay safe and will share what we can on social media
