Hi everyone,
I am trying to get back into running again after a bit of a break. I have a 11K booked for September at Cranleigh Showground, running the Surrey Hills. A challenge for me as I usually run on fairly flat ground.
I would love to raise money to help those who have been made refugees by the war in Ukraine.
I personally know people who have had to leave the country they love and call there own. It is heartbreaking when I hear what they are going through.
Please give what you can to make a difference and provide food and accommodation.
Much love, Ruth x
Here is a bit about the work Ukraine Christian partnership are doing:
We are working with our 3 partner churches in the west of Ukraine. We have been working together for over 15 years with people we know and trust. With the current conflict happening our partnership has never been more relevant. There is a desperate need now for shelter, food and safety for the Ukrainian people who are fleeing the war. Many folk are passing through the border area in which we serve (and on to Hungary or Romania). Others choose to remain in safety in Western Ukraine hundreds of miles from the current conflict zones to see what materialises hoping they can return home in the not too distant future. The centres in the villages we serve accommodate up to 450 refugees at a cost of 7-8 Euros per day for food, toiletries, temporary accommodation (including heating and security). Please give generously by clicking on the "Donate" button and please do remember to claim Gift Aid if you are a tax payer.
