Story

Thank you for taking the time to visit my Just Giving page.  The latest fighting in Ukraine is forcing families to flee.  I'm raising funds to help the UN Refugee Agency to continue providing life-saving protection to families forced to flee their homes.  Your support can help ensure that Ukrainians forced to flee their homes are sheltered and safe.

I've had an idea - let's get together at Coburg House in Leith (Edinburgh) and fix that broken necklace that's been sitting in your drawer for a couple of years.  You give a donation to UNHCR and I'll provide the materials and instructions to fix up your jewels.  If you haven't got anything that needs TLC, you can make something new.  The events will run on the weekends of 2/3 and 9/10 of April, 11am - 4pm each day.

I'm also aware that travelling to an event is not possible for everyone, so if you would like to donate £5 to this page I will send you a kit to make a couple of wee seed bead necklaces from home.  Simply donate here and DM me your postal address to @fionaluingjewel on instagram.

Here's how your donations can make a difference:£9.57 could help provide a plastic tarpaulin to a family.£48 could help provide 10 warm fleece blankets to displaced families.£73.60 could help provide a child with psychosocial support (Group, outreach, day care centres, Child friendly spaces).
